Polypterus Senegalus aka Gray Bichir (Long Fin)
Was at C328 yesterday and saw this cute little fellow. Wasn't planning on buying but fell in love with this Sene.
Atractosteus Tropicus aka Tropical Gar
Got 2 more pieces of Tropical Gars last week due to the impending ban of Gars by AVA.
One of them is of the darker variant while the other of the whiter variant. Interesting to see how they will grow into.

Lepisosteus Platyrhincus aka Florida Gar
Got this beautiful piece of Florida Gar from Stones in Dec 2010. It was barely 8" then and rather skinny looking. It has since put on 5" in length and looks pretty fat. Eats everything anytime.
Nandopsis Bartoni
Cichla Kelberi (Wild Caught) aka Peacock Bass
Purchased 3 Cichla Kelberis in Dec 2010. They were about 8" and 2 of them have since grown to 12" while remaining one stays around 9". The smaller one simply refuses to take MPs and will only take BF. Attempted to starve her once for 40+ days and finally gave in to her demands.
