Of course acknowledging each fish is different, here is my experiance with this particular fish.
Temperment-very mild, no aggression at all to any other fish. Very personable, does not hide.
Growth Rate- I got mine last June as a health 9" fish, growth was unbelivable with the fish getting to 16" by december, lenght has slowed but the thickness of the fish continues to increase and is starting to rival my 20" Ornate. Weeksiis appear very massive as they have a short tail, vs fish like a lap which has a long flowing tail. (All Body)
Good luck with yours and be sure to post more pics as it grows.
yes i agree. i researched them before me and a buddy bought a couple and from what i found they said they were one of the more active bichirs but all ours did was hide all the time. mine eventually jumped out of the tank and i lost it but he still has his around 10 inches and still just hides all the time.
dude.... you should be happy.... weeksii are are like ultra mega rare here...... I would gladly trade an ornate for a weeksiihghlndr85;3820968; said:hey guys i bought this bichir sold as a ornate. to my surprise after a few input on it turns out its a weeksii, i really wanted a ornate. whats the deal with the weeksii? didnt see much about them, are they rare? not sought after?
