Hey guys,

Just curious, but has anyone ever kept lungfish, or made an inquiry about the prices? And what were the prices? I'm assuming not too cheap...

What size tank aswell as I looked at the site and they said they could go in a 6 foot which sounded a little on the small side.

 

Thanks!

Yeah I enquired back in July. 1600 for the fish and about 200 for freight from memory. Ceratodus.com
6x2 would be small eventually but for the first few years would be fine.
A discussion some time ago in the native displays thread in the ANGFA forum suggests that mpac might have had one back in the day. I know a sponsor that has a couple of them... definitely not for sale. Other than him I only know one other guy that has one. He doesnt make it public knowledge because of the value of the fish.

Great fish.

I'm just really interested lol. No way I'm paying in the 1000s
