Considering another Bichir


BigBossPants

Recommended Posts

I'd like to get either an albino or regular Senegalus, but the ones I'm looking at are tiny (albino is 6-7in and senegal is bout 3in).

I have an Ornate Bichir (approx 11in), an Oscar (7-8in) and a Jack Dempsey (8in) in a 240L tank.

My questions are:

1) How big should the new Bichir be before I can safely put them in the tank with the big boys? Safely as in not being swallowed lol. I do realise that I'm going to need a bigger tank soon.

2) How big should a grow-out tank be for the senegal? I am looking at a 900 x 400 x 600 (LxWxH), is it big enough?

3) What is the likelyhood of the 2 Bichirs getting on? Will the eventual size of the Ornate be a problem?
