Jardini Tankmates

Polypeterus aka bichir, there are two type of bichir, lower jaws that can grow 18”+ and UJ that can grow 8”-12”. Bottom dwellers and predator but dont really mess with anything that dont fit their mouth.
That really depends on the individual fish, some like to swim, most are logs. Upper jaws are move active than lower jaws but if your planning to have jardini you’ll have to have a poly that can grow about 13”+ so it wont become a meal.
I have my bichirs with 3 silver aro, 2 are 18” and one 13”, i also have a jardini that is growing about 5”.
Jardini are hit or miss, some are calm so are aggressive, my first two were a a**hole always going after the other aro, the one that is growing now is pretty calm, but all 3 jardini i own never bother the poly. It usually goes after mid or top swimmers.

had some big one’s when he had aro community, he also has a good size right now but dosent get along woth his afrowana.Hm I see I guess it depends on my luckJardini are hit or miss, some are calm so are aggressive, my first two were a a**hole always going after the other aro, the one that is growing now is pretty calm, but all 3 jardini i own never bother the poly. It usually goes after mid or top swimmers.
More likely to work than the jardini from what I have read, the Asians are supposed to be less aggressive. I have never kept an Asian, can't personally verify that. I do think a 180 is going to eventually be too small for any arowana species. Though it should work for a good while, if you can upgrade at some point to more like a 300.
