hey guys i have a 40 gallon tank and am so obsessed with birchirs and i was looking for a tank big enough but couldn't afford :/ so i was wondering if there are any type of Birchir i can keep in a 40 gallon as the only fish or any other snake like fish plz tell me there is something out there lol
 
and two more questions, i know i should feed them meaty foods and i am ( i have a 30 gallon just for my feeders that raised myself) but r there pellets i can get?, and how can i keep them from jumping out the tank, i heard alot of ppl with birchir that jumped out of tank ?

Yea Hikari massivore sinking pellets work great for bichirs. Also live earthworms too. As far as the top is concerned just make sure it fits on properly and fill any gaps there might be (even really small ones).
