Mastacembelus erythrotaenia?post picture
I already have some of ur waiting list fish: moke and buettikoferi,Royal Knifefish ,ansorgii,weeksi and teugelsi

Alcip,

Birchir/polypterus is primitive sp

Rope fish about a foot long. very sensitive to water parameter.
mine dont jump tank but all kena poison by bio loads.
My advice, keep ropes in another tank. Don't comm. Keep the bioloads very low, and ph very stable. Once they contract the "white feathery" disease, thy're goners.

Ur weeksi bought frm whr? Is teugelsi a slow grower?

What happened? Sorry to hear that. Still too early to conclude 2013 anyway. Look on the bright side and be positive la. We just plan things, the outcome depends on situation and luck. That is, if u dont believe in God. As in Jay situation, gar-feeding is a pain to his pocket, but he made a really cool story here, like, i never heard of a bichir eating gar before (not when the size is almost the same).

In the end, all of us fall into a students-of-life category. For me, beside that i love animal 'almost' by birth, i think i need something natural other than computer, tablet and smartphones. Also, i found that its rewarding that i can have a relaxing time just by staring at the grace of their movements. There's belief that certain sps of creature can understand ur mind, but i wont go that far, too much of a fairy tale already tongue.gif

*clap2* trueee2! Well said, my fren. I anggap tat incident as a big treat for my bichirs. Haha. Saw before gar eat bichir? Youtube gt a video of that. Haha.

Do your tank has cover? If no then add a cover, else, just add some fish like silver dollar or tin foil barb so that they will eat the mosquito larvae.

Gt cover, bt the cover is lk net(gt holes). If add silver dollar, i sked it wil end up eaten by the bichirs. ><
