i currently have a 240 gallon tank 8'x2'x2' with a silver aro, 4 bichirs, flagtail, lima shovelnose cat, really soon i also plan on buying 1 fire eel and 1 gar. would i be able to keep 1 bgk and 1 ck? i want some opinions.
thannks :)
 
ok well what if i got a bgk around 4 inches? how long does it take for it to grow? my smallest bichir is 3 inches and he hasnt gotten eatin yet
 
your lima could eat you bgk and your eel...i have a bgk and a ck with pbass, stingrays, gar...i have a bgk with payara, peacock eel, angel, and a few others...if you eel and bgk were big enough it could work for a while, but the risk is always there...i have and will have silver aros and jars in that mix aswell...
 
ok what if i get a bgk about 5 inches big? and the fire eel is gonna be 8 inches kinda already big. why will my lima eat the bgk if hes 5 inches and hasnt eatin my albino bichirs 3 inches?
