If they are similar in girth then they should be fine. just keep an eye on them for a couple of days because endlis tend to be cannibals at an early age.

Hes eating anything and everything that hits the bottom.

Just as long as he isn't eating the bottom!! I know some people get away with it, but I'd never keep polys on gravel after watching my first palmas swallow several large bits while picking up food...
 
That ornate has some great markings. Beautiful fish ive spent the past few days admiring mine and its colors have not quite popped like your bichirs have.
 
If my fish is stupid enough to eat gravel so be it.
