Two new rare Lungfish from Congo.

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Bad news. The sp. congo will be going to be pick up by my friend. This lungfish is super aggressive. Will bite anything it gets near it even bigger fish. It was doing fine in a 75g tank with my p.a.brieni but became a berserker when it settled in the second day in my comm tank. It bite my snakeheads fins, hang on about 3 second to my green arowana's anal fin. Bit all my lungfish and even my large 30" ripsaw catfish and my aba aba's snout but the aba aba bit back. All my bichirs were swimming in different directions too. He is now in a 30g tank waiting for my friend to pick it up tomorrow.

My brieni however is doing good and been eating along side my SAL and AUL. Won't come close to my two west african lungfish though.

All are still ok. Just some torn fins, missing scales and scratches. No major damage done. Luckily this lungfish is only 12".
Probably dead fish, if the Lungfish was 24"+. :eek:

Even at 18" could give some major damage. It was 50-50. If I let it stay and wait till it calms down the aba aba might have kill it before that as this lungfish pissed off the aba aba first. This is one thing about my aba aba. Once a certain fish pisses it off, it will fight back and won't stop till it kills it. Happened to my pbass. Trying to eat my aba aba but the aba aba killed it.
 
dang, that sucks. Picking on an Aba aba :WHOA:
