Realise its a tricky one to answer but what would be the minimum size Poly I could house with a 14" Endli?
I've 2 Endlis and 1 Lap which I'm growing out with a plan to going in with my big Endli. The smaller ones are around 7" at the moment. I know it'll depend on the fish but wanted to know if anyone had any experience with this?
Thanks for any help
 
Would get similar sized polys close to the 14in endli.

I’ve made that size difference work, but I have always had a group of polys. That normally curbs aggression. Just give it a shot and observe. That’s what I would do.
 
Anything is possible but ive had all sorts of size differences and never had an issue as far as someone ending up as dinner. Agression is a flip of a coin.

This endli was probably 17 inches the sen was less than 6 at the time

Man you have some monsters! I am hoping my endli gets upthere but I’m struggling to get it food right now. It’s around 12” though.
