Hi,

I pickedup a Seneal Bichir fish last week, and I was just wondering if anybody else has one of these also? I named him Eragon!! He is the neatest guy, I got him cause he was different and just thought he was cute. Of course he'll grow to be about 12in or less. He's about 4in now. A very interesting fish!
I put a link below for ones who dont know what it is.

Oh I love bichirs! They look like snakes and dinosaurs and fish all put together!
I wish I had one, but alas, no room.

I have one, he has so far eaten 1 young cory, 1 dwarf loach and 2 young khulis, hence the new tank being prepared. But he is an interesting fish

Wow! He was just dining away wasnt he! How big is he? Mine is about 5 inches! I have him, Eragon, housed in a 20 gal right now, will eventually move him to the 55 gal. along with the 2 Gold Severum Cichlids & Pearl Gourmai. Big tank is diseased right now Got 3 Angelfish and Silver Dollar that i'm tryin to save from fin-rot! Not havin much luck! I treated the water with meds but havin to retreat again starting yesterday! I messed up on that one......cause one of the Angels wasnt all the way cleared up and yet I did a 25% water change and put carbon in, to filter out the rest of the meds only to wakeup yesterday with more infections on them!! Dang it!!!

that he was lol, hes just under 5 inches. tank sounds nice. oh dear, hopefully this time they will be cured.obviously the Cichids and Gourami are too big for Eragon to eat, but what about the yoyo's?

They are just the neatest fish! Mine has lots of personality! I luv it when I drop food in he smells it instantly and searches for it! Fun to watch him. Right now he's hangin out near the surface on the heater, lol Oh, great pic, thanks for sharing!
