    Gert this is what I was telling you about yesterday.

    http://www.aquarticles.com/articles/breeding/Gallo_Senegal_Bichir.html

    " I once had a large (12 inch) Polypterus senegalus that managed to get out of its aquarium and decided to go for a stroll. I found it right after my cat did. Unfortunately for the cat, the Bichir wasn't in the least bit interested in being the feline's lunch and I watched as it lunged aggressively toward the cat with its mouth wide open! I returned it to its aquarium unharmed."

    Respect!! Gotta love those uglies!
