Stocking questions??

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Most of the Bichirs were introduced as large adults to the Oscar when it was about 25-30.
Since the Oscar has grown, I have added numerous smaller Bichirs, and larger ones.

My Dats, Oscars, and upper jaw Bichirs tank:

My Gar, 44cm Oscar and lower jaw Bichirs tank:

Other tanks are
1. Black Arowana + Juruense cat + lower jaw and larger upper jaw Bichirs
2. Asian Arowana + Gar + lower jaw Bichirs
3. Upper jaw Bichirs only
4. Upper/Lower jaw Bichir + gar + Tigrinus growout (all small juvis)
5. small quarantine/hospital tank (currently housing 3x 3" juvi Rope fish).

Then there are the Snakehead tanks, which I wont get into!

Never had any problems with any of the mixes of fish here.
 
cheers everyone for all your info it is appreciated and wont fall on deaf ears.

I think i will look and try and go bigger if pos depends on space more then anything but as long as theres enough will go for 5 or 6.

from what ive seen of peoples tanks this set up can work but again i guess it will come down to the temperament of the fish.

Is there any other fish that can go in this set up? I have only mentioned the things i really would like but always good to hear what others think.

Many thanks
