70gal

I was thinking about getting Senegal's. How many should I put in a 70 gallon bow front tank, what kind of tank mates would last the longest? It is not urgent just planning.

I think 3 maybe, senegalus senegalus if that's how its spelled.

Heck go with more. Try 4-5. You could put some others in there too.

I'm only interested in the SS, the whitish grey color is awesome. I want to see if there are any fish I could put in that are kinda the same color and will survive, the gravel I use is very colorful so white fish would really look good.

What about Albino Senegalus?

 

[jlsmonkey]

one of those and a normal sen would look great

What about reading the Polypterus Primer?

P. palmas palmas ('palmas' bichir)- 13"
P. senegalus senegalus ('Senegal' or 'Cuiver's' bichir)- 12"
(subspecies) P. palmas buettikoferi ('buettikoferi' bichir)- 13"

These are all near the same size. Would they do well together in a 70 gallon?
