hello everyone. i'm new here and i come from Vietnam. I got a monsterfish tank : 3 channa pleuro, 2 bichirs (del and endli), 3 indo datnoid, 1 spotted gar. I've just introduced my new leichardti into my tank yesterday, and the leichardti started fighting with my group of 3 channa pleuro. In the evening, seem like the channas won, and they kept chasing and bitting the leichardti. To now that problem keep on happening, so i have to move the leichardti out to another smaller tank. Could anyone help me how the leichardti can join in the comm tank of channa? Sorry. My enlish is still so bad :(
 
Ah and one thing. The channa pleuros are about 9-10inches. The Leichardti is about 7-8inches. Please help me
 
You might have to decide which of them mean the most to you and get rid of the fish that are least important or just keep them in different tanks as the aro and the channa may never get along.
 
Tks guys. So sad but perhap i have to keep the leichardti in another tank. But i really love a comm tank with an aro in there. My dream may never come true.... :(
 
yep i'm thinking about a bigger aro, but my tank is too small for an adult silver aro.... may be a green aro have a chance ?
 
Although the initial signs are not good, the interaction between the fish may change. It may get worse, but it could ease up. You did just put the Lei to the tank? I would keep keep an eye on them before removing.
 
my pleuros keep on biting the Lei. so i sell the Lei to my friend :( that í the last way i can find...
