Polypterus ornatipinus will grow too large for a 55g. You could do a Delhezi, and maybe two Senegals, just make sure you don't get like 3 males, or something. Try for 1 male and 2 females or 3 females.

All get way too big for a 55g except the 5 star general

red tail catfish is the ultimate predator..but again it vil get big for 55 gal..i too think ur best option would be something from the polypterus species..u can go for an albino senegal bichir or something like an endlicheri.

 

[probassfisher010]

Polypterus endlicheri will get much too big for a 55g....easily getting 18"+
