Baby lungfish in a 75g

[Lokasenna]

My sugestion...keep it by itself..if you want tankmates to work, get a SAL instead of a dolloi.

Thanks for your reply Grif. My intention of adding fish to his tank is simply to fill the empty space until he decides to do it for me. I'll likely focus on keeping schools of inoffensive fish with him. I am mentally prepared for the fact that whatever I buy will be, at some point or another, lunch. I'd rather focus on this guy as opposed to stacking tanks (I've already got a 120, a 55 and a 20L).

He's more then fine in his 20g long now so this 75g will probably be a long term project. I still need to dig up a filter, heater and head down to Phoenix for some color quartz substrate. The price on Tahitian Moon is breaking the bank.

lungfish get nipped easily especially by small,fast fish.
i'd keep it on its own.

if i was to loose my severum and my oscar i would probably leave him on his own or add a large group of guppies.

If you plant the tank right and keep your lung fed you will find that the guppies breed faster than he can eat them.

Ive seen it done and for the price of guppies its worth a shot
