I can't seem to find any info on here about keeping more than one Australian lungfish in a tank , if they are around the same size would there be any problems with keeping a group together?

Anyone here kept a few together long term?

I live where they exist in the wild ( about 20 mins away) so I can keep them outside in larger ponds etc so room is not an issue. Just waiting on one of the lungfish breeders to get back to me with prices atm.

Thanks if anyone can help
 
Yes you can keep them together. Just get anything bigger than 5-6" as they are nippy to each other. Best get them at 8" as they are more tolerate of each other as they get older they become more peaceful and won't care about anything except food. I have 2 in my tank one is 30" and one is 25" and another member here I think got 9 big 30"+ AULs.
