Which one do you guys think is better for beginners in terms of interaction and care etc.
Any info on care for either species is good too.

How many ropes would need to be in a group?I would choose poly by far. For a beginner the ropes would pose a serious escape threat also they require smaller bite sizes of food compared to polys. However if you are good enough to make sure they don't escape and have the time to occasionally cut smaller pieces of food then either ropes or polys would work. Another thing about the ropes is they are better in groups so if you are limited on tank space then a single poly might be the only thing that can fit. So I would probably lean toward a polypterus being a better beginner, but the rope isn't too far behind

Tank size is anything.
