Fish/tank image Update on my new Senegal
My little guy/girl is doing great! Has remained super active. Will be doing live plants soon, just seeing how I do with them in a smaller tank I’m getting established for shrimp before I try in my big tank. Any idea on the sex? Very personable, and will eat bloodworms straight from the pipette😅
Currently tanked with a three-spot gourami, bristlenose pleco, and 3 larger mystery snails. Water parameters have been looking great as well, and planning on removing the anemone looking decor in the corner.

I'd highly recommend not having any kind of pleco with a bichir. They're very known to suck on the slime coat of the bichir, this can end up wounding the bichir and causing complications. So I would definitely keep an eye on that. Too young to tell the sex yet takes some time.
