Turkana senegal bichir adventures.

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Well, this “adventure” has been put on hold as the turkana has died.

Needless to say, this will not be the last post from me in this thread as I will continue this journey upon a later date most likely a few years down the road.
 
What.... sorry man ?

it was the ammo burns?
 
I don’t know what the hell happened to him, all I know was that it hit hard and fast.

Sorry for the loss.
 
Sorry for the loss.
Don’t be sorry, sure I lost the bichir of my dream and I am out $500 but I did learn a few lessons.

1. Don’t trust plecos with bichirs
2. No fish leaves quarantine without being 100% in good shape
3. Test the parameters every day after a new addition
4. Ask for help sooner
 
So sorry for your loss, it sucks to lose such a rare fish. I lost my wertheimeria maculata and I am still bummed about it but its part of the hobby just have keep going.
On the bright side neocranis did say he wanted to work on a bichir and it would be better than burying him.

ahh, the pleco jacked the Bichir? I’ve been seeing my blue phantom going after my Bichir... figured they were fighting over food...
 
I believe it was a series of things that ended in his demise and one of those things were the plecos attacking him.
