Hello everyone,
New here but great site. A lot of knowledge. I have a 125 with 2 tiger oscar's 4", 1 EBJD 3'' and three clown loaches 3-4". I was hoping to get a senegal bichir or something similar like those freshwater eels that the lfs label them,,.. Just figured it would give plenty of contrast.
Thanks for advice input. o yea filtration i have one rena xp3, fluval 404, aquaclear 110 and a no name hob for strict mechanical.
 
YES!!! Go for the senegal bichirs. You could go for ornates and delhezi as they are some of the most popular upperjaw bichirs on MFK.

Ensure they get to eat as they could be outcompeted for food by your current stocks. For me, ill using a feeding tube and feed them hikari sinking pellet. just put it in and aim for the bichirs :)
 
lemme know how it works out if you add a bichir, i was contemplating downsizing/adding a couple of my sens to my 75 but i've been too worried my oscar will eat them.. they're about the same length i just dont wanna risk it, even though he hasn't eaten a 2" botia loach yet
 
Yea will keep you in the loop. Just finished acclimating him. Found a large delhezi about 10'' or so. to large for the oscar's thus far. So far they have pretty much left him alone i hope it works. will upload pics. Thanks for advice
