Guinea is just a locality/river bro. It's where they got the bichir from. Same goes to "Nigeria", "Chad", "Volta" etc.

Wow bro, surprised u didn't get the congicus, now I might consider going back to get it lol. Was looking at the endis, only one the head shape really attracted me, but the stripes too skinny or I would have bagged, is this the one?

Still a few good looking Guinea endi left. But prolly not the size you want.. about 10" or so. Mine is about a foot, the biggest of the batch. Was thinking of going for mass or body stripes. in the end went for mass LOL :D

love the flat compact shape of wild endis :)

Had a couple of anchor worms on my endi, came back and slowly use tweezers to pluck them out :p

Congicus a bit too skinny and i don't have a spare tank to pump.. my other tank is holding my small tigirnus, so got a bro to sell me his instead. :o

go for the small congi with deep stripes.. no thick bar but contrast is good :D

im not sure if this was the endi you were looking for.. the ones left had similar flat and compact head, so in the end i went ahead to get the one with the biggest mass. barring was, i'd say average.. but gotta see how the color shows in my red quartz then can judge the barring :)
