I have my 3'' delhezi and i want to put him in with my 9'' ornate and two 7'' sens. Bad idea? will the delhezi get eatin? If it sounds bad then will the delhezi be able to get big enough in a 25 gal?
Bad idea?

You might be better off letting the Delhezi grow out for a while in the 25g before moving him in with the bigger guys.
He'd likely be fine with the others, but better safe than sorry if options exist.

Yeah, ill let him get a little bigger. I really like him and for $40 id rather not let my other bichirs eat him.
grow the Delhezi out first. Should take about a month to get him up to par. Not worth it to chance it. Dels aren't cheap.
It shouldnt be a problem in reality. Unless you have some relaly mean bichirs all of mine have always excepted new babies in no problem. and i have introduced 3 babe bichirs into the tank no problems.
Well just keep them well fed and keep fingers crossed. Rule of thumb is to usually keep them all within a couple inches of each other...
Id really like to get him with the others so he can grow a good size in the 75 but since they arnt cheap and are hard to find around here ill just grow him out a little.
