How large would fish have to grow/be to live with a senegal bichir for life? How about with an endlicheri bichir for life? I tried and asked if Rosy barbs can live with a senegal bichir for life since rosy's can get up to 6 inches. I did not get a response. So I'd like to have a good idea of what I can shoot for.

Also, in another tank, I have an endlicheri bichir with my black ghost knife. They are the same size and they ignore each other. Can I add an ornate bichir to the mix if it is the same size as these two?

as long as it doesn't fit in its mouth or have to many fragile/long fins you should be fine but they have surprisingly big mouths.. if the fish is slender it will ofcourse have to be bigger.. when you see them together you should be able to make a call..

ornates can be a little tricky, I've had aggressive ones and mellow ones.. they are the most aggressive polys I've ever come across.. it should absolutely work but I'm just saying there is a slight chance your ornate will be a little aggressive..
