My delhezi tank

I had two teugs in with my other polys. I have ropefish, dels, polli, moke, Palmas, sens. I gave my teugs away. Both hit 18" in about 1.5 years. While growing I had 0 issues with them acted like the dels out most of the time and active. At 18" they killed and ate a ropefish and I had noticed split tail fins on most of my other polys. I rehomed them both. I really like teugs I may try another eventually. But those two were quite aggressive. The tank they went to had a mix of lower jaw polys. They apparently killed a anasorgi about two days after arriving. He took them to an lfs.
Nice looking tank and love the fish!
Thank you for your replys!
Now because of the mixed reactions here about the teugs i will skip them and stay with the pollis instead.
Dont want to risk any trouble.
The biggest one is a bit above 20cm i think.
In Josh‘s „Bichir Handbook“ it says Delhezi can grow up to 2“ per month in the first year!

Yes the Dels are growing very well at the moment.

I bought mine here: http://www.tropicwater.eu/stockliste.html
Everything from Customer service to shipping was fine!

The new ones: 3 Polypterus polli 
They are almost the same size as the Dels so that should work well.

The pollis are doing well so far.
It‘s nice to see them cruising around the tank and exploring everything.
They even animate the Dels to move around a bit more
I realised one of the Pollis is more bright and has a flatter head than the other two.
Could this be a hybrid?

Can be.
It looks a bit like a mix between senegalus and polli.
But with a very flat head which is really good looking imo.
