Potential stock for 120 polypterus tank

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I like african butterfly fish for top dwellers, but they may be too small for your situation.

Needlenose gars might mix well.
 
i actually had rocket gars in mind before. maybe the polys, 2 gars (they get 8 inches) the chocolate and a couple others? But what to do for those others......
 
take it from someone whos done it before, heres the stock list your gonna want
5x senegal
5x delhezi
3x endli
3x ornate

+/- a few counting on local availability

the cichlids will be constantly in threat of one hungry bichir taking a swipe in the midle of the night, and they dont let go

Dang that would be great! I have all of those and then some available to me. I really do want some mid to top dwellers though. I could do larger semi aggressives. Chocolate, a sevrum, still kicking the rocket gar idea around. I could just take a shot at mid dwellers and if it doesn't work I'll handle it accordingly.

The senegals just dont pop enough for me. Maybe an albino though. I would probably replace the senegals with retropinnis(sp?) since I have those available as well. And speaking of what I have available to me, I saw polypterus ansorgii on my list this week. My initial thought was "gets too big" What do you guys think? I would have to change the whole stock but tank size wise...doable or not?
