100g will be fine for a cb lap and a cb endli.

Everyone else agree with that? If so I will more than likely go for the Endli as that's available by me. What are the lower jaw poly's like in terms of growth?
 
Would it still be better to get it before getting the Oscar to give it a head start in terms of growth?

Do you agree an Endli would be comfortable living in a 100g for its lifespan?
 
Cb endli will get 18-20in. That'll be years and the 100g are 72x18.5x19 should be good.
 
CB endli should be fine in a 100g, as stated it'll take years before it begins to get tight turning, and even then they're so sedentary I doubt it would care. They grow much faster than ujs too.. My cb endli went from an inch to about 6 inches in 3 months or so
 
As I stated in the original post, the tank is being custom built with dimensions 0f L 48" x D 20" x H 24", sorry if there was any confusion :)

I'm still waiting on an email to see if my LFS stocks Polypterus Delhezi or can order one in.
 
Would those tank measurement I stated be ok for a CB Endli, just wanna ensure no fish suffer :)
 
I would think so, it actually provides more space to turn around. And LJs aren't terribly active fish so I doubt it would really miss the extra length. But I'd wait on other opinions

Sorry about that...kind of forgot about the dimensions.

Still think it'll be a decent tank size for a while.
