a buddy of mine had them mixed but the bichirs where much smaller. I don't see an issue with them, I have large ones and I am more then sure they would be fine.

I did not have a good experience with the mix. Both eat off the bottom and have to compete for food. You end up with the ray blanketing the bichir. I had an experience where a ray kept topping my weeksi and the weeksi bit the ray. I no longer have that combo now.
