Delhezi Bichir eating video (from my YT channel)

[I Like Rare Fish]

I was asked to film my Delhezi Bichir eating. He is right at the point where he grew out of small cichlid pellets, but is just a wee bit small for mediums. Takes him a little to actually eat it. I tried cuttibg it into smaller pieces, but it doesn’t work. I sporadically feed frozen/fresh caught fish to him as well. I just started my YT channel.

Cool...I don't know anything about these fish really, where are they from? Why is the tank bare?

Why is the tank bare?

for easier maintenance for the keeper, probably
but that puts stress on the fish because they can see themselves at the bottom of the tank

put some sand on the bottom of the tank and spend the extra 10 minutes at maintenance time

Don’t worry everyone, the tank is bare bottom for only a few days until the black sand arrives. People will keep this fish in bare bottom tanks often. As for information, here it is https://www.fishforums.net/threads/an-illustrated-article-to-the-bichir-folio-1.475855/

I don’t remember who asked me to do it, but I think it was either @PlasticGalaxy or @OliveFish05
