omg thats huge dino

Oh man i cant believe it I OWN THIS FISH NOWWWW!!!!
think its only once in my life time

At the aquarium:



At my home:


Healthy, active and eating.
Still thinking a name for him/her. Really headache. And he is very gentle with a smiley face always when it stares at you. Anyone can tell me how to identify its gender?

More pictures coming soon, i could just sit there for hours looking at it.

*Bought from local licensed fish stores not from illegal importer. And its better to buy licensedly this fish is cheaper than obtaining it illegally. At least save you 2k and up from my experience.

I heard their reproduction organs are hidden inside their body, and other physical features are much alike for both sexes, so its hard to tell the sex. Further reading :

But hey, u can still name him/her with a 'gender neutral' name, to be safe

Anyway its an amazing fish. Good catch there buddy Mind to share the size and price?

thats an aussie lung fish right? me want one!!

Aha, no wonder its hard to search for this topic. thanks for the tips. Been reading about the facts on this fish all the time, it took me a great courage, luck and money to get this fish.

Now i m not regret at all but proud to be the owner of it.

Size: about 0.7 feet
price: really wan to tell meh...

From wikipedia: "They have been described as having a reddish colouring on their sides which gets much brighter in the males during the breeding season. This colouration is the only distinguishing sexual characteristic of the lungfish"

guess i have to wait til its 15 years old when it reached sexual maturity.

Added on December 10, 2012, 11:43 pmyes, got an australian lungfish just yesterday after 6 years+ searching for it. Was quoted 6k/8k etc. bought it at less than 4k though.

My mind keep repeating "omg" for these 2 days. Think gonna see a neurologist soon.

woahhh.. nice fish... T_T never see that fish before here..

rm4k for that fish? it better taste good

In fact its less than 4k but more than 3k la. What more mesmerised me is this fish is super rare and CITES listed.

u guys know where i can find the saltwater fish forum?

For me, lungfish is a fish with unique personality. They can grow very large too! See the 2nd pic in attachment. Its larger than a dog!

Did you get it at Irene Aquarium? I saw one there a few weeks ago. Tempted to buy it but no space to keep it just yet. Lucky you. It was about 3k + only

just noticed aussie lungfish is much more cuter than its cousinz.
i wonder do they bite their owner fingers, and how do they react with their owners

Yes, the moment i saw it, the moment i decided. coz i tot that fish only exist in my dream, so better grab it before i regret. btw, fyi guys irene has always has oddballs.

Added on December 11, 2012, 10:12 pmWell, i havent tried it out yet but better not. Last time i used to have an african lungfish, it just bit anything fleshy. I studied a lot on aussie lung and was found that its d most gentle lungfish so i think it will be good with me.

The first time I put it into my aquarium, it just didnt budge at all, think it was frightened by new environment
Now its very tame, you wil think its very curious that it is always sniffing here and there.
The best thing is, no matter what, when it has eye contact with you, it just wont stop smiling to you. Oh, it makes me day!
