i have a 5in peacock eel in a 125 and i have a birchir in a 180. i want to but them in the same tank but im not sure if theyll get along or not. has anybody tried that?
 
what kind of bichir? I wouldn't put any spiney with a Bichir that will outgrow it. even then the bichir may eat the spiney if it ever gets to hungry. personally I've had good luck mixing mine. I would think a senegal or possibly a delhelzi would be okay with a peacock. But would not mix the larger species which also tend to be more aggressive with a peacock.
 
it is a senegal so in theriory both those fish should grow to about the same size. i just dont want the birchir to grow to full size in my 180 thats full of community fish.
