I have 13 polys and an aro (recently bought) in a 100 galls tank ( they call it red chili aro here, with silver colors on the body and reds on the edge of the its tails), they all about the same size right now; questions are, will the aro and polys get along each other?
I hope they not gonna start biting each other couse the only time I have to see them is when I get off work late evening,
There are plenty of feeders available in the tank, (eversince they are so cheap over here) couse I want to make sure that food are always available,
cheers
 
yea they work i had 1 aro with 15 bichirs
 
thanks for the info, by the way what type of aro is the most expensive one on the market?
 
You should not feed feeders and that is terrible to keep 13 bichirs and an arow in a 100 gal tank
 
you plan on upgrading right?
 
not anytime soon, couse they are still on average size, about 6" each; besides I have to save a lot of money before getting a bigger tank; the chance is, I will build the tank my self in the future,
cheers
 
I would advise against feeding too many feeders or even leaving them in the tank. The longer they are in the tank, the more you risk spreading disease and parasites that feeders often carry.

Unless the bichirs are much smaller than the aro, they should get along just fine. My aro doesn't care about the bichirs in his tank.
