I'de go w/ 1-3 of several different species. I love my 2 sens, and wanna do the same thing in a 125 eventually. Very addicting fish..

not too worried on filtration, i am going to make a wet dry system 1200 gph + 2 350 gph HOBs
can i really not keep an endli in a 125? i thought it would be fine, and i did not know ornates are nippy

If the tank was wider I think you could But in a 18 inch wide tank He wouldent be very happy. and yes ornate can be very nippy

not all ornates are nippy but they nip then get use to it then stop dont worry

I laugh cause in your opening statement you mentioned 10 Endis in a 125 gallon!!!
We are talking about 10 fish that get anywhere from 18-30 inches and you want 10 of them. Hard for me to even picture. I think you could do Endi for a while but why 10!! Just try to envision 10 fish crammed in a tank that size-LOL!

ok why not hujetas? but yeah 125 is the biggest i can do for the next 4 years and then i will probably be out of fishkeeping for a while
i think i will do it, and if they seem cramped or there is fighting, then i will just sell some of them, thanks to everyone that chimed in

The biggest bichir will eat the hujeta gar. Hujeta gar's growth rate slows down at 6-8".
