is a 125g tank big enough for a full grown ornate bichir? I already have a 6" oscar, 7" blood parrot, 6" red headed severum, and a 3" purple parrot in the tank. Do you think that the chichlids will pick on an ornate if I put it in there also?
What are the tank dimensions and how big would the ornate be when added. I believe those chichlids are safe if none are breeding and none are nasty individuals,
as long as they polly is similar in size do not put a baby in that tank but you probably knew that
idk how big the bichir willo be, but the guy at the fish store knows te size of all my fish and said he would be ordering an opropriate size specimen. I have considered getting rid of the blood parrot as she attacks my oscar all the friggin time. the tank is 6'x18"x24" i think.
I have the same size tank with two big CK's, Silver aro, Florida gar, catfish and my ornate. I got him when he was small, about 4 inches and he has grown very large with all these fish. They never really attacked him and he found places to hide.
Have one in a 120. Been with oscars, JD, midas, FH and pacu. Nobody ever bothered him, just sits in one spot all day and cruises the tank at lights out.
