Okay guys, my Aussie lung as been alone, but I'm itching to find it a tankmate now it's about 12"...I picked up a big BGK of 12-14" and was planning on making it the first tankmate... however, as the AUL is my fav fish and super expensive, I'm extremely paranoid about putting anything with him...

Opinions?
 
Should be fine. I have 2x 12" and 15" goldline knifefish, 5x 12" carapo and a 12" BGK with mt 2x 13" aussie lungfish. They leave each other alone. In fact the knifefish will some seek cover right next to the lungfish when my knifefishes fights each other for territory.
 
I'd really like to put one of those Orthsternarchus tamandua (White Trumpet) knives in next time we get some at work...

I'm getting some of those as well. I'm broke right now. Bought to much bichirs this x-mas and more to come on the new year.
 
Ah they're cool...but word to the wise, they are ridiculously accurate jumpers. Especially for a blind fish...I had a 14" one get out at work through a hole 1cm wide by 3 cm long...
