    Bichir and Kuhili Loaches?

    From what I understand, the moment you put a kuhili with a bichir it’s as good as spaghetti. I’m not about to try it for myself, but I’m curious if there’s a single person here who was brave enough to try and found success. Love to hear, thanks!

    Hello, I am planning a Polypterus sp. tank and going for all upper jaw species. I was wondering if these species/subspecies would all work out together. The only bichir I had experience with is a P. ornatipinnis a few years ago that dropped dead one day, possibly choking on a plasic piece of a...

    Geophagus megasema for bichir tank

    Hello, I was planning on adding fish to either my empty (2'x2'x9') or (2'x2'x7'), maybe the latter.
