STOCKING IDEAS FOR MY NEW 155 GALLON

[Something Fishy Here]

Ph can vary from time to time even out of the tap but you should be able to get an idea of where it is from scanning your water bill, or even searching online for your local water report, it's all public record in the US, PH GH KH, Nitrate, etc if you can comb through the document.

I am about to buy a 155 gallon aquarium stand and light for $300 off Facebook marketplace. I would like to keep probably an endli bichir and a delhizi or dinosaur bichir (2 total bichirs) and im wondering what other ideas you guys have that I could stock it with. An arowana would be sick but obviously 155 gallons isn't big enough for an Aro for life so yeah just lmk what y'all think

I have a delhezi, and he is VERY food aggressive. When he was 4”, he grabbed my 2” convict by the head and started shaking him for a solid 10 seconds. Put fish bigger than your bichirs if you want them. But bichirs are absolutely amazing. So much personality.

thanks for the advice! i’ll get my ph tested soon. i was considering a pike cichlid, but idk if they’re compatible with many other fish. and irwinis are super cool, but are you sure an irwini can be in a 150-180? they get like 35” as far as ik

A 35 inch would be a real monster I think. They are not particularly active either.
