Man, that is a cool fish. I almost got senegals once but didn't have the room.

Thanks! I have been looking at them for a while but always talked myself / girlfriend talked me out of it lol but I saw this beastie and couldn't resist him

I have been thinking that, it was sold as an ornate but I don't think it is now :/ how big do the dehlizi get?

Very big, I think the Senegal is the smallest if the species

As far as I know, delhizis and ornates both get about 20" long, and are quite similar in care.

It's not a delhizi it's bottom jaw protrudes the top so I think it is a saddled bichir?
