Would a single 6-7 " leichardti be okay with the following;

2- 5-6" bichirs
6 - 3-3.5" indo dats
1 - 5" thin bar
1 - 4.5" Pike
1 - 4" Fei feng

I would've put the Lei in my big tank, but I have 2 - 10-11" temensis p-bass in there..

you should be sweet.
 
I guess I should've re-phrased my question.

WOuld a leichardti only show aggresion towards other Aros or are they aggresive with all tankmates ?

Al the fish in the grow out tank can hold their own as far as being eaten, I was more qorry about aggresion from the Lei towards the smaller fish

i have my leichardti with a dat only a quarter its size. he loves to chase it, but i have no worries in my mind about it. provide decent hiding space. he loves to "chew" on my bichirs but not literally cause damage. he never messes with my clown loach.

i think there agression is more towards other aros, i tried a silver/lei combo but it didn't work out at all. but everyone else has been fine for the past year, the aro grew from 5" to about 20" in the past year as well. he's been nice to all his tankmates
