How fast does it take one to get from 2" to 10"?
Can it co exist with polypterus in a 125? (until the fahaka needs a bigger tank ofcourse)
 
Fahakas grow roughly 1 inch per month. I wouldn't risk putting one with a poly, if your looking for tankmates for a fahaka look for small fast moving tetras or minnows.
 
convicts make a good tank mate. however when they breed they may stress him out a bit. any bottom dweller will be trouble
 
My fahaka picked off every single neon I put in with him.
 
Tiger barbs too.

It probably won't coexist with anything. A Fahaka can live in a 125 for life so no need to upgrade.
