I keep two of my Birchers with my clown loaches and haven't had any problems just keep my big ornate away from my loaches until the loaches put on some size honestly surprised my little rainbow shark hasn't been eaten yet thoughYeah, people love bichirs here. But I guarantee you that any poly owner would not suggest bichirs with loaches.
And no - no size rope fish is recommended with any lower jaw bichir.
You can gain experience by learning from OTHERS mistakes. You don't have to make them yourself.
I had bircher about 15 yrs ago in a 125 gal tank I added a 6 inch texas cichlid the bircher was about 4 inches and as soon as the lights went out the bircher started attacking the texas and nearly ripped his tail off these fish are no joke
