Oh, also an update. I got 2 more fish today. One I believe is a female Pseudotropheus sp. "Acei" and may be a hybrid because it has a white underbelly and the other I'm almost positive is a male electric yellow. Male because it has 1 small eggspot on the anal fin.

acei may have some white underneath. you just may have a lot. do not forget that they are herbivores.

yes bichirs.

idk it just seems like more people keep bichirs than ropefish.
 
Sweet! I love the Acei. I hope it's a female because of my male hybrid something or other. They both have a dark purplish color so I'm hoping they don't "fight".

I'm trying to get some synodontis multipunctus. I've found 6 of them for $60 on aquabid but I think that may be too much.

I'm not too familiar with bichirs but from what I've read it's not a good idea to keep bichirs with african cichlids because of the aggression of the cichlids. My cichlids have learned to live with my ropefish and they both co-habitate and some of my cichlids will actually sleep next to the ropes.
