I am getting a new 55 cause my jd is outgrowing my 29g. What kind of bichir could i house in a 29g?
 
A Senegal...but Even that Might be to Small
 
i have a 7" Senegal in my 29 gal, i think its to tiny for him so soon he will be in the 180, its just that they need more space to swim because mine is always active
 
Oh well guess I better scratch the bichir till i can get another tank and some more room.
 
moke perhaps

they grow pretty slow and max out at about the smallest size. otherwise albino senegals because most of them are SB and end up under 10"
 
a senegal could be ok in a 39 but a 40 gallon would be better
 
in a 29 ansorgii if you could ever find one but a 55 would be better why not try a senegal or another small bichir in the 55 with the jackdempsy that could work if its female mabye male but thats pretty risky
 
it would be ok to put a bichir in the 55 with the jd? i just figured the jd in the 55 would be enough.
 
Bichirs shoukld not be kept with agressive cichilds-Anne
