Would a jack and a bichir be okay? I would be worried the bichir would be to small as it's just a baby.


I personally wouldn't put anything in that aquarium the Jack Dempsey would stress the Poly out. Maybe in a larger aquarium. What all do you have in the aquarium?

55g two oscars and a pike
30g 6 needle nose gar 1 jack
10g feeders
10g baby jack and baby bichir
70g community tank tetras, angles, cory, pelcos, etc.

I suggest setting up the larger aquarium's asap and rehoming problem fish if necessary. I also applaud you for having the larger aquariums already available.:)

Does anyone have experience in dropping off trouble fish at a store?

Call your lfs and ask if they will take it. You can also place it on the Market Place on this Forum to see if someone will take it. Petco will take fish.
