I have been thinking about what I am going to stock my 75 with, which currently has a 3-4 inch green terror. I'd like to get some clown loaches, as well as giant danios for dithers. Would a senegal bichir work with those?
Or would it eat them?
 
the danios will get obliterated lol, if not from the bichir from the cichlid
 
they;ll be fine for sure...i've got a senegal and a delhezi with cl's but they are fine. the only prob is that the cl's are eating machines!
 
The Danio would be dithers, and I doubt the GT would get them. He is only 3.5 inches right now anyway.
 
Yea I would definately say if the GT is still small, it would be tough for him to catch the danios. I have several in my tank and the most damage that my oscar and GT did was pulling off a few scales. The danios are just a lot quicker.
 
Just remember that a school of CLs can't really be housed in a 75 for life so start planning for the future. (I'm one to talk, I have 7 cls in a 75 haha)
 
Don't they grow insanely slow?
