Title pretty much says it all.

If you could have ONLY one poly tank (only poly's in this tank), as big as you wanted it, and you could fill it with either upper jaws only or lower jaws only... which would you choose?

Quick recap of the fish involved...

UPPER JAWS!!

P. palmas palmas
P. palmas polli
P. palmas buettikoferi
P. ornatipinnis
P. delhezi
P. senegalus senegalus
P. senegalus meridionalis
P. retropinnis
P .mokelembembe
P. weeksi
P.teugelsi
E. calabaricus

+ all variations

-vs-

LOWER JAWS!!!

P. endlicheri endlicheri
P. endlicheri congicus
P. Bichir lapradei
P. bichir bichir
P.ansorgii

+ all the variations of those (such as nigerian lap and guinea lap, ect)

(assume you all the fish are at max size)
 
I would go upper jaw mainly because of the Senegal and how active it is. Plus you still get a wide variety of colors and patterns. It's so hard to choose though, why can't I have both?

as much as I would love to have a P.b.b. and as impressive as full grown lower jaws in general are, dels and ornates are are some of the most beautiful fish I've seen. Not to mention all the senegal morphs...

I think I'd be quite happy with just the upperjaws.
 
I'll get 2 tanks, one with all lower jaws and one with all upper jaws..:)
