Hey everyone, I got a friend that might get a 3" bowfin but he's got one question, will it be okay with his current fish? He has an 80 gallon aquarium and fish are...

1 angelfish 6"
1 clown loach 2.5"
1 palmas Polli bichir 6"
1 albino Senegal bichir 5"
2 Senegal bichir 5"
2 black ghost knife fish 4"
2 red severums 3"


Any fish that'll be a problem with territory or aggression or something? Thanks in advance :)

After a while, the bowfin will kill all of the others.

Never had one, but aren't they kinda like a North American version of the snakehead. I would imagine once he grows a few inches his tankmates will keep him well fed ;)

Thanks for the great responses everyone, keep em coming! :D and anyone know he growth rate on these guys? I'm getting one for myself and once it reaches the 7-8" mark, it's going in with my bichirs in a 180g :D
