Polypterus are considered ‘living fossils’ (prehistoric creatures that have remained unchanged), and a bridge between fish and amphibians (an intermediary step towards growing limbs). Polypterus ornatipinnis is a nocturnal predator, and should not be kept with smaller fish. It needs a lot of floor space as well as a very secure tight-fitted lid. Soft (sandy) substrate, driftwood and rocky hiding places are also recommended. It is a very hardy fish that is best kept with other ‘peaceful predators’ like other Polypterus, Datnoids, Synodontis, Knife fish, Arowanas etc.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Absolutely Fish Naturals","offers":[{"title":"3\"","offer_id":67677200122178,"sku":"mjb1791370727623","price":48.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12\"","offer_id":67677200154946,"sku":"gpm1791370727624","price":127.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/3906\/5410\/files\/ornate-polypterus-bichir_1.jpg?v=1791370733","url":"https:\/\/www.islandandivy.shop\/products\/ornate-polypterus-bichir","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
