Weird Bichirs?

The furry glands are just external gills the bichir has when it is younger. They disappear as they get bigger and use the pair of lungs they develop.
thx a lotyup that's all. All bichir species have them when babies. it'll disappear. My 5 inch weeksi has it right now for about a year. Not all that special.
Dinosaur bichers are cool, but beware of how aggressive they are. My three inch bicher swallowed my inch long rasbora whole!

Armored bichir with external gills....delhezi come to mind. They should do fine in your 75 gal for awhile. Very interesting fish pretty hardy too IMO. Keep away from Plecos though. Plecs like to eat their slime coat which can cause disease and nasty looking spots. Some ppl have success stories but better safe than sorry.
