Aquaticheavens Polypterus Saddled Bichir juvenilles (Pack of 2 Fish) - Aquarium Exotic Freshwater Live Fish

✅ The Saddled Bichir (Polypterus endlicheri) is a striking and prehistoric-looking fish, known for its elongated body, distinct "saddle" pattern, and formidable presence in the aquarium

✅ This species is tank-bred, ensuring a hardier and more adaptable fish for home aquariums. The Saddled Bichir is an excellent choice for experienced aquarists looking to add a unique and captivating predator to their setup

✅ Bichirs are nocturnal by nature and will spend much of the day hiding.

✅ They become more active during the evening and night, adding an element of intrigue to your tank

✅ Their distinctive appearance and behaviors make them a centerpiece in any large aquarium.

✅ Saddled Bichirs thrive in spacious aquariums with plenty of hiding spots. Use sturdy decorations such as large rocks, driftwood, and caves to create a natural and secure environment

✅ Substrate should be soft to prevent injury, and plants like Java Fern and Anubias can be anchored to hardscape elements, as they tolerate the low light conditions preferred by these nocturnal fish

✅ Given their predatory nature, Saddled Bichirs should be housed with larger, robust fish that they cannot easily prey upon
