Will they be safe?

[Alexandrian]

Hello every one
How is your Bichirs today?

What do you think, Will 12 cm Sengalus be safe with 21 cm Endli, The Endli looks so peaceful but he already ate a 5 cm CL, So will my sengalus be safe with him?

Thanks for your help

Its a gamble

Are you willing to take the risk?

No, I am not, I can't stand the idea of them beeing eaten even if they already ate a khuli loach and a congo tetra,
Do you think it is better to keep them away till they get bigger? something like 15-16 cm?

the problem is endlis tend to grow so fast it will be difficult if even possible to grow your senegal at a fast enough rate to get to a safe size to be with the endli, that being said its a 50/50 whether your endli will eat him

I wouldn't put money on him not being eaten. But it might happen.

endli is not peaceful as you see. i saw my 13.5" endli bit my 10" asorgii's head couple times already

But mine isn't growing that fast at all, It is with a 23 cm Sengal in the same tank, The sengal was even smaller than the endli few months ago

I won't take the risk, I like the sengals so much even more than i like that super lazy Endli

Ok , now i am confused, I am not even that sure i have an Endli and not an Asorgii
I don't want to look like who asked for a glass of milk then wanted to take the cow but can you please help me ID it
Sorry for the bad photos
