Would Bichirs be a good beginner Monster class?

For the many beginner MFKers out there.

i guess you could say that.
they are hardy as any fish ive ever had.
i think pacu might be the easiest monster fish ever though

Prolly

all of them are hardy, easy to feed, aren't aggressive (just predators), come in a variety of sizes and colors.

Depends... what makes one fish more suitable over another, specifically?

My philosophy is to start with what you like, but make sure you know what you're doing before you start, and you'll be successfull.

Pare, If you like them, than yes I would recommend them
Good Luck

I think pacus might be a little on the large side as a beginner fish. But Yeah get a Senegal they're tough simple fish that don't get enormous, but big enough to be monster.

Senegals are a GREAT starter fish! Hardy, eats anything, stays relatively small.

 

[skene]

Definitely.
They are very tolerable fish. They will not fight with other fish, as nothing else will look like it. Usually other fish don't bother as well, for the same reasons.
Can live in almost any type of water (provided that it is not saltwater). PH or temp is not a problem.
Go for it.
