So I have a 65g, demensions are 36x18.5x22, and Ive been thinking about what to stalk this with for a while now and this is what I thinks seems like a cool idea to me. Ive seen some people on here with tanks jam packed with bichirs and so it got me wondering if I could make a nice poly-pile in my 65g so heres what I want to try and do and you guys can tell me what you think... I want to get an amazingly good filter for it like an Fx5 or something and paint the sides black and have black sand on the bottom and fill it with nothing but albino senegal bichirs. I want to try to put atleast 10-15 and theyd all be about 8 inches when I bought them so do you guys think this would be do able? Feedback is greatly appreciated
 
sounds good. black back (not the sides) and black sand. you can add some albino sens, regualar sens, del, polli, beutekefori, palmas, etc. most of those upper jaws will be find in your tank.

I just wanna do albinos sens because I think the white would look good surrounded in black, but maybe ill get one platinum just for show:D

lol good luck with finding one. ;) imo having too much white on black can be disorienting, better to have a variety.
