Definitely a marmite fish! I'm on the ❤️ team. These fish are escape artists so definitely need a secure tight fitting lid. Also in this tank are some black ghost knife fish but they were being very secretive. West Lothian pet shop licence no. 181479 | Riverside Aquaria | Facebook

The reedfish Erpetoichthys calabaricus, is a species of fish in the bichir family. It is the only member of the genus Erpetoichthys. It is native to fresh and brackish waters in West and Central Africa. The reedfish possesses a pair of lungs in addition to gills, allowing it to survive in very oxygen-poor water. This fantastic specie is available at Tropical Aquatics your one stop shop for all your aquarium needs. | Tropical Aquatics
