another orphan.
I have a beautiful 12" ornate bichir (polypterus ornatipinis), that needs a
new home. I'm not sure of the sex, but in great shape. For those that are
unfamilliar, some informative links are enclosed.

I've been feeding it Hikari sinking carnivore pellets, Frozen krill, and it
seems to really like spirulina tablets. It is currently housed in a 55, and
kept at average ph and temp. This is a great bottom dwelling fish to keep
with large or medium cichlids, I'd love to keep it, but i'm moving soon and
would rather not chance it.
free to the first taker.
