This hardy species has an eel-like shape, paired pectoral fins, and a distinctive dorsal fin that gives it an ancient look. Senegal Bichirs are generally peaceful toward similarly sized tank mates but are opportunistic predators and may eat fish or invertebrates small enough to fit in their mouths.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare Guide:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to 14 inches\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 75–82 °F\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003epH:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.0–7.5\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Generally peaceful but predatory.
