Hell yea I'd like to get some platinum, sb and lf breeds but sadly the only available one would be classic albino Senegalus.
In Germany there are no platinum bichirs yet.

Seems like no matter where ya live it's the fish ya can't have that ya want.

I would imagine if you could get enough bichir lovers to come together then you could get a vendor to import a big batch from somewhere else? Just a thought.

100% agree.
I guess not having a species available all the time makes it more interesting for most people.
We've got all those fancy plecos, Corydoras and discus in Germany yet I don't keep any of them and keep focusing on the species popular in Asia.

Would be quite a good idea.
Sadly there are very few serious poly keepers in Germany.
Most people are satisfied with a cb senegalus in a 50gal.
I am trying my best to make people realize how diverse and beautiful Polypterus are.
At this point I've got three fellow fishkeepers interested in delhezi (affordable and not that common).

Exactly, I'd love to have snakeheads and Asian arowana but can't get them in the US because of a ban on them.

Wonderful collection! Particularly fond of the del, gives me hope for the patterns of my baby
