i have much more experiance with oscars, but the red dervils that i have had were vicious eaters, then my oscar got much bigger than both devils and ate them pretty fast. the devils were nasty enough to blind an oscar in 1 i that was 6 inches bigger then them

exodons i dont like! bichirs to in active. getting tiger oscar with 1 convict or 1 firemouth
Are you trying to say Bichirs are inactive? That's not technically accurate. It really depends upon the species and how you raise them. I've got two adult Senegal Bichirs. You could not call these veracious eaters inactive. I keep a lower light set up to accommodate my stock, but over all they tend to be the most active fish active day or night. Only recently have my loaches outmatched them in their activity levels.

Now my Ornate? Different story. He's still a shy thing and I wish he wouldn't hide his pretty face so much.

Really now. a 12 year old has a couple thousand dollars to drop on a fish tank and a fish and go to university? obviously you haven't done any research at all. A large tanks going to cost you atleast 1k brand new especially in canada. also your going to buy an endangered arrowana that costs a couple grand also. They have ones here for $3000 babies are $300 and babies are the hardest to take care of. Also another couple hundred on equipment i think not, canada has high prices for most aquaria things. Also people say arrowanas need tanks that are atleast 3times their length and width atleast double so have fun supplying that since they all grow 30" plus so a 100g wont work. Maybe do a little more research you had it good at a african cichlid tank........ do more research than that before giving a statement like that
