Midas and Bichir
- Thread starter Kyel
- Start date
I've always had bichirs with all my aggressive CA/SA's midas, RDs, Dovii, Umbee's, etc...... I've NEVER had a cichlid kill a bichir I have been keepin them together for over 15yrs. now
Only problem I have had with mixing them is getting food to the bichers. Food dont seem to make it to the bottom for the bichers unless I overfeed.
The good thing is that my Midas only likes his NLS pellets, Omega one pellets and the occasional bloodworm treat. He does not like krill, beefheart or anything like that. He just lets it sit on the bottom and refuses to eat it.
It is a 120. I think that I talked to you about putting an ornate in my 125 with my flowerhorn. These are the only fish I could think of putting with my Midas and Flowerhorn.
