What do you guys keep with your bichirs??

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Royal plec, sorubim lima, oscar , jack dempsey, burmese upside down catfish, other bichirs and soon to be a tire track eel. I also keep any small ones with my Snakeheads for growing out
 
With my 6-7" Sen, I have a 14" Silver Aro, a 10" sailfin pleco, a 14" red belly pacu (yeah, I know they get too big for my tank), a 13" tt eel, 4 5-7" bala sharks, and after tomorrow, a lima shovelnose cat. Oh, and the tank is 220 gallons.

Yeah, it took me a while to decide what kind of catfish to get, but I did some research on the lima shovelnose and it seems like the perfect cat, not too big, not too small, not overly aggressive, and they look cool too. I can't wait until my LFS gets some in tomorrow. :D
 
Hao do you keep the gar and knife together? any fighting?
