if im not mistaken i think your 60x18x24 tank is equivalent to 110 gallon? there is a lot space in your tank bro try to add some lower jaws like ansorgii, lapradei, congicus and upper jaws like delhezi, teugelsi, weeksii. that is the common species in our market here in the philippines

btw where are you in the philippines?

Qc, I also have an account in mypalhs. Many people told me that lower jaw bichirs need at least a width of 24". What do you think, sir?

yes bec. lower jaw grows in 30" and it is better to give more floor space instead of more height. they are bottom dwellers so they spend more time on the floor. IMO and i also have account in that site
