I'm trying to plan a tank out and I was wondering if there is a minimum depth for adult Bichirs (I have senegals). I was thinking 15-17" tall but I was also considering getting an Aro or Oscar eventually and if that's not deep enough to give them room to stay above the bichirs I may consider going taller. Any input?
 
Yeah thats what I was thinking, just for the bichirs, but wanted to get other opinions on it. I think I will go taller just so I won't have to upgrade later for tankmates.
 
for a bichir only tank 12-17'' would be fine
 
well it depends on the bichir's length,mine is already 17 so 17 above depth wouldn't do,well if you are generous enough add some more,assume its max size
