those are some beautiful bichirs. i need to get a pic up of mine. mine is VERY active and swims around the tank ALL the time. hard to get a pic of him most of the time. and so does my buddys. his is around 11" right now. its crazy that you all say yours are kinda boring. mine has a hell of a personality. he even follows me around and definitely knows when feeding time is. mine loves the comets but i havent had much luck feeding him these rosy red minnows (i think thats what they are, only get to 1" and cost me 12 cents). swims to the top, bottom and side to side really fast. he is ALWAYS out and barely hiding.
