Thanks guys and can't wait to get him in my 150! He will most likely share a tank with my Beani when they get to size.

I think he will be ok with my Midas for a few months but we'll see when they get the intro. Midas is mean as hell but hopefully they cope. I mean the tank is 7 feet long and 18" wide so there is plenty of area.

Be prepared for all out war in either case. Never had an istlanum that played well with others, including plecos.

If they don't get along I have a 50 gallon with his name on it.

Plus I doubt the Istlanum is going to want to mess with my Midas. Hes HUGE and is not the most cuddly fish as in I pretty damn sure he can Kill a 16" Dovii almost instantly if he wanted to.

Though I still think it will be ok to house them because I know the personality of my fish. He seems to get along with slimmer shaped fish and ones that don't look intimidating. He got along with my jags ok with a quarrel here and there. But Vieja FORGET about it. He can't stand any species.
