Anyway can try serangoon north ard petmart area, alot of LFS over there. But there are no bichir bichir available for sales unless u ship them in i asked b4 a bichir bichir cost at least 1k if u wan to ship them in from the states.

Lapradei wise moz place shld have but beware sometimes the price over there quite overkill . Do abit research b4 u go buy. If u wan lapradei i have a 10" one to let go...but i live at the west.

How much are you willing to pay? I can help you to take order to a local importer to import the bichir bichir, but be prepare to pay a very high price.

Yah forget to add, you can go yishun 932 or 618 to get your lap. Around $80 you can get i nice one already. BTW Y932 is closing this month end is selling his bichirs and other items cheap. Go take a look.

I can gif u a quotations i got last time when i previously wanted to get a bichir bichir.

What size are you looking for and what is your budget? The amount you are looking for? I can give you an estimate based on toyin's hobbyist prices.

Polypterus endlicheri congicus(lg) - US$60ea
Polypterus Bichir bichir - US$400 - $800ea ( no min quantity)
Freight for 45kg- US$360
US wildlfe clearance- US$124
Box fee - US$40
Local AVA clearance - SGD$268

We can do small import for you, but is is not worth the money you are paying.
Please revert to me after careful considering.


This is what they sent me. Hope it can be of some help. Or u can get some LFS to help order also. But do look at the pricing 1st as i am sure a bichir bichir would definitely cost more den a few hundred SGD.

Yah I just got to know today when I went down. It will open until end of the month. Most of the stuff are clearing at cheap price. Didn't see any congicus at all. You can try asking him to find for you.
