I know most of you have seen Godzilla like a hundred times but LOL here she is again. I'm pretty darn sure CDM's congicus(27"-28") is much more massive than Godzilla(25").Wow. Just holy wow. Look at how thick across the back that monster is!
My iPad isn't drool,proof you know...
O
Godzilla @ 21" or so compared to a 22"-23" Silver Arowana
Godzilla @ 23" or so compared to 9"-10" lapradei and 16" ansorgii
23" or so Godzilla compared to 9"-10" ansorgiixendli hybrid
The rest of these photos are when Godzilla was 25" or very close to 25"
Godzilla with 23"-24" Ansorgii and 16"-17" Ansorgii
Godzilla chillin next to 24" Ansorgii, and other 14"-20" bichirs.
Godzilla next to 10"-12" Congicus
same 10"-12" congicus from previous photo and 24" Congicus(still smaller than Godzilla) chillin with Godzilla
Better angle of the 24" Congicus(soda can size) and Godzilla.
Godzilla(She actually was not 25" yet in these photo) vs. Soda can. She actually got a bit larger after few months later.
Probably my favorite two nonflash shot of Godzilla

- speaking of congi. Do u know the details of this? Size? Still thriving? Infblue owned it? It was an amazing pic when pulled out of the water for photo op.
Looks like it's Infblue's largest congicus was like 27" a few years back. Possibly pushing 30" by now. If it's still alive, it should be at an aquarium/university in the East Coast along with the rest of his bichirs (undergoing studies with them). ATM they are doing a study on sp.Dabola I think. Don't remember the details.

Shes the reason i fell inlove with congicus. Such an impressive fish
The congicus you have now will get there in due time!
From your lips to the poly gods earsThe congicus you have now will get there in due time!
This is Mr. Takenori Saiko from Japan's collection. These photos are in 2015-2016. I honestly think he has one of the best(if not the best) bichir collection around! Some of these bichirs look very old too! Most of them range from 20"-30". I forgot how large the tank was but definitely not a small tank just some monster bichirs. He's got turkana/chad pbb, ansorgiis, sp.dabola,endlis and ofc congicus! All of his Congicus are so monster. That's one of my dream tanks to have at least 4-5 24"+ Congicus swimming around like him.
I really like this photo, you can see 3 sp. Dabola at monster size along with a monster Guinean endli.
