have a 3 inch aro, 3 inch endli is there any other fish that i can put in my 60 gallon with them? i was thinking about a fire eel or rope fish. are there any schools of fish i could put in there like some clown loach. what fish will the endli and arowana get along with, if some one could help me it would be great.
thanks

Hope fully this is a grow out but I always liked seeing either a Datnoid, Fei Feng, or RTGG in that mix.

Behind you
a bigger than 3" school of clown loach would work as they are very peaceful.

I'd get something that would grow just as fast as the current fish you have.
Or at least already has some size to it.
Might as well make them a shoal(5) if you go that route with the loaches.

First of all what type of arowana is it?
I had to save a 15" rope from my Endli when he was 10", he had 8" of the rope down his belly head first and he still survived:D.

The fire eel would do good. But like I stated it has to be a good size.
Both my endli's went from 4" to 13-14" in 6 months. Anything that can be consumed will be. Even 4" oscars. Thats my endli with one in his belly in my avatar.
How about other polypterus?
