You work as a politician, don't you?

I still waiting for those who tried the mix, and enden up with disaster. But they haven't posten yet, have they?

...and read your own post again. It's you that want to pick a fight, with your porley disguised sarcasm.
Well I guess I rest my case.

You'll do as you wish anyway. Sorry if I have bothered you with whatever you have seen as politics. As for sarcasms, I don't hide them, it's the whole point. My post was not containing any, though.
 
wow, this OP isn't smart or at all polite. Good luck, when your fish tear each other new aholes be sure to post about it.
 
I had them together in a 125 gallon and I didn't have any problems with aggression...
The pleuro stuck to the middle/upper levels of the tank and the lucius usually at the bottom.
But fish are weird... so be prepared to separate them
how long did you have them commed together?
 
my friend tried this mix a long time ago. He had a 5-6 in pleuro in a 75 gallon community, I forget the other fish but I believe they were all predatory and around the size. I wanna say there was around 5-7 other fish? Then he added a Lucius about the same size. Went well for a while, a couple months i wanna say, before the lucuis started killing the tankmates (I forget if it was overnight or one a dayI'll bug him if needed) and eventually killled the pleuro. Then Lucius got in a fight with another fish and got an infection and died.

Tldr: 2 sh went in 0 came out
 
OP probably won't read this comment, or nitpick about it :/
 
Just to be fair. I just saw someone today on instagram with this mix. He added a larger pleuro to a community with a Lucius already. And the pleuro is pretty large...looks to be 14 inches or so. Lucius is around 8-9in? Plus or minus 2 inches since I'm only seeing pictures. I believe he has had this going for around a month two now. All his fish look flawless so fighting hasn't happened yet.
