TankMates Bichir Compatibility?

[Meadows117]

Hello... Just wanted to know what everyone thought of this combination before they get to big to be traded/ returned.

Jack Dempsey, Green Terror and Two Senegalus Bichirs. I understand the Bichirs are more compatible with different fish than the JD & GT

Any thoughts? wouldn't mind to add one more sub 8" fish.

the green terror will probably beat up the senegals and the jd might to but it really depends on the jd's personality, ive seen some that will beat up any fish that you put in with it and then theres my jd whose real mellow and wouldn't hurt a fly(unless she was hungry)

What size tank? I have an aggressive Argentea who ignores my two Senegals and Ornate. I think there is a pretty good chance it will work if your tank is big enough.

i would have to agree with that, i have an ornate bichir with a jd and some cichlids n no one bothers the bichir!

The only other fish I keep with my Bichirs are the feeders. But I'm planning to put them and my Severums in a much bigger tank.
