My Congo’s murked 2 new ones. Had 10, and 2 days in was down to 8. But when you get them in one big group, they are fine. Delhezi’s are very active.

You could do a Congo River Basin Biotype. A Delhezi, 13 Congo Tetras, 4 African Butterfly Fish, and a pair of Bufflehead Cichlids.

Congo Tetras will hold there spot, and may be the top dawg of the tank.

I’m 90% sure my crayfish was and my leporinus is a mercenary/bounty hunter. They don’t kill often, but they make a clean job of it and someone in the tank always seems to hate who died.
 
Okay that would be cool! I am not a fan of African butterfly fish had them before and I just did not find them enjoyable idk they don't do much. So how about something like this?
1 delhezi
1 Senegal
1 brown ghost knife
12 congo tetras
1 bristlenose pleco
And some type of decent sized cichlid? Maybe a electric blue acara
Or an angelfish or severum or festivum?

Sounds good! Acara is a good bet. Kribs or buffalos would be good to make it a congo biotope (with the exception on the pleco).

I am the most indecisive person on earth I think. I've decided to go away from my live bearer idea and wanting to do something more interesting. Could I put a brown ghost knife fish in with a Senegal or delheizi bichir in a 75gallon for life? What other tankmates can I keep with them? The only other tankmate I really do want is a bristlenose pleco. Any thing else out there that would work maybe a big school of tiger barbs?

I think you could do all of that in a 75. You might just have to do more maintenance than normal since bichir are messy

Okay that's awesome I do kind of want the delheizi just because I love the pattern! But would that bichir be a threat to the knife or pleco?

You could do the sen and the delhezi along with the brown knife and African butterfly along with a school of larger tetra. That would be a sweet tank

Plecos aren’t useful. They poop 24/7. The Congo gang gettin BLOODTHIRSTY!!! Buffleheads are great. Small, and relatively peaceful.

Bristlenose get the job done. Great algae eater but not as messy as larger plecos.
