ya i know but some people think their very aggressive, i agree very curious but very goofy fish. i like the ornates or the delhezi. What are the Delhezi like? i would perfer smaller like them. Would it be ok if i added it now to my 100g then in 9 months moved it to the 180g?
what bichir for my 180g

Delhezi would be fine in a 100g for life. If it were me I'd move all the fish you have into the 180 and devote the 100 to bichirs and some other less aggressive fish. You can keep any of the upper jaw species (except ornate maybe) in a 100g so why not tailor their environment rather than risk putting them with cichlids and a pleco, both of wich could kill them. Just my two cents.
ya the only problem with that idea is that that my red devil is getting moved to the 100g. i would get rid of the pleco if needed to and get a flagtail. Would a flagtail and a delhezi be ok with the stock i have in a 180g?
If you don't mind if the male convict was ate maybe you won't mind if you sold him and stuck with the more peaceful group. Then you can expand your options here.
I currentlly have a Flagtail, a Oscar, 2 Senegalis Bichirs, 2 Green Terrors, a Festae, and a goldy pleco growing out to add with my NGT datnoid, Silver Datnoid, 2 Ornate Bichirs, 2 Endlicheri Endlicheri Bichirs, 2 Palmas Polli Bichirs, 2 Lapradei Bichirs, 2 Delhezi Bichirs, 2 Albino Senegalis Bichir, a Royal Pleco, a Tigrinus catfish and in time 16 other bichirs. All of them get along great the only one that worries me is the festae but it is my girlfriends fish and will be gone if I have any problems.
So if your looking for other tankmates I'd suggest what I have listed or other peaceful larged sized fish.

I do mind if he gets eaton. I said I'm not worried about him because he is pretty aggressive. That's a stocking. All going in the 120? I'm leaning for a flagtail and a delhezi.
