Looking good man. You figure out the sex yet ?

I noticed the endli is a little snappy nothing serious but snapped at the del a few times
 
Did not check out the fins yet to sex.

The endli is a beast and Im glad the small bichir are gone. I think the current stock should be able to handle it. How often are you feeding it? Maybe its hungry, and del was on the menu, lol.
 
Monsters in the making for sure! Leave the lights off for a few days and get some tilapia in their bellies!

Well I went in to watch the fish a bit and the endli was nipping at the koliba but then a second later the koliba was biting back a little. These two aren't fighting but I cant see keeping in a 75g for long. It really looks like they both are about 13" but the sheer difference in body mass is pretty remarkable. That endli really is thick!
 
Thought the aggression was maybe hunger related and put in tilapia. The lap ate quite a few pieces the endli kind of ignored it. It had a couple little pieces of shrimp earlier so not too worried. I want to make sure to get a little food into these guys and then do a parasite treatment before they go into the 300g. The weeksii is probably as thick as the endli so likely it will be fine the teugelsi is maybe 11 1/2" but nowhere near the girth so hopefully the endli is not too bad in the big tank.

Been feeding it daily shrimp and flounder. Has a great appetite sniffs at the nls but hasnt taken any yet.

I dont think its serious theyve been together for over a week and no damage just noticed it took a few swipes at the del.
 
I just turned lights off and put frozen krill in for the night. I need to watch the endli's eyes since they look like they were scuffed a bit. usually need a day or two to clear up.

Im curious to see what my endli does with my crew. I knew you had cut feedings back for a bit, so I was wondering.
