Which bichir should i get

[Runitis]

Me and my friend want to get a bichir but don't know which one to get. He has a 50g and i have a 70g what can we get? we don't really want an albino or sengal are there anything else we can get? I kinda want a ornate and he wants a del will that work. please give one for a 50 and one for a 70 thanks

You'll need to upgrade for a weeksi. They get quite large. The others would all do fine though. Mokes would be good as well if you can find one.

Really if this is true you shattered my dreams! i read that they grow only 15" max?

Do a search on the forum here. You should some pics of weeksi's well over the 15" mark. Sorry. I didn't give them their genetics.

BTW, most sites I've checked list them at 22" max size.

Leave the ornate and weeksii out. Delhezi and the 3 palmas are fine
