Which Bichirs would you recommend for a 150 gallon?

[thefredpit]

L200 Green Phantom
L091 Three Beacon Pleco
L600 or L114 pleco
Mango pleco and Blue Panaque
L201 pleco
sunshine pleco
L191, L190, and l 27 royal

lol I just realized we were talking on your pleco thread all you need to add is a spiny eel or 2 and a knifefish or 2 and you will have all 4 of my favorite types of fish

I love my fire eel Nero and I've got a BGK and Afer knife. I used to have a carpo knife but he was too much of a jackass and I didn't have room for him to have his own tank

A fire eel outgrows a 150, right?

Yes, I really love the delhezi bichirs I think I will do one of them.
Tankmates will be mostly South American mostly Myleus Silverdollars, angelfish, , fancy plecos, red tail barracudas, a Black ghost knife and a few datnoids.

That's already some big stock! Are any going to be moved eventually?

They do grow quite large but are not quick growers. If I do get one, once he gets too big he will be rehomed.
I am also considering a tyre track eel.

You have some nice senegals there Hendre! Yes, the fish that grow huge will be rehomed eventually.

Alright. Upper jaws are highly recommended from me then

Wild caught sens like mine are rare. But there are many nice options, especially Delhezi
