Good tankmates yet?

[elbeatch]

I've got a polypterus tank, the biggest in the tank is an 9" ornate (and 4 senegals, 2 smaller ornates) thats pretty feisty, I'm growing out a couple of albino senegals in a 10 gallon, they're 4 1/2" right now, i've fattened them up pretty good, but I'm anxious to move them into the bigger tank as they are in a 10 gallon, but I also don't want my ornate to choke on them and they all die. so. I ramble too much
Is a 9" ornate going to be alright with 2 albino 4-5" senegals?

this might not help because the camera distance makes it all relative but anyways. once again, the albino's 4 and a half inches, the ornate 8-9,

on second thought, forget it, no way.

Good call. It's not something I would have tried either.

I finally decided to put them in the same tank at this point with a bunch of feeders, so far so good, I'll keep you posted, take some pics of the size difference.

If i may add, your albinos look really good. perfect shade.

Thanks! I really like the look of the albinos, albino anything really is pretty cool. SO far so good, the big ornate hasn't touched them.
