Great thread, to me my goal is to have a 24" plus bichir someday. I doubt my 5 year old Ornate will hit it but have high hopes someday for my latest endi who is 16" inches at just over one year or my new Congi who is now at 14".
Having just handled my 20" inch ornate in a tank move and seeing what a beast it is, I can only imagine a fish over 24" would be like.
Holy grail........30 inch plus fish, we have all seen the couple of photos of the PBB and angosori in the tank but a verified MFK fish would be special.
happy new year to all bichir keepers. (sounds like something Anne would say)
