I have an ornate bichir and I am thinking about getting some small 4-5in pbass, when they get larger would the pbass eat my ornate?

Thanks
 
depends on how big ur bicher is, and how hungary the pbass are, but mostly how big the bicher is
 
like a hotdog:grinyes: but theres always that exception...I know of three birchirs that have been taken out....but also have seen people with them together. Always go in expecting the worse...and when it all works out its that much more satisfying....when they get eaten the disappointment and shock isnt as great. I would say it depends on the size...but my buddies birchir was alot bigger than his bass and was eaten...then regurgitated later that night dead and stinky:eek3:
 
I have a tiny Senegal with my Guys but like D-mack said I would NOT recommend it. I am pleasantly surprised my little guy is still with us. You would think a 4 inch Senegal would look like snack food to my 8 inch bass but him and my 3.5 inch clown loach swim without any fear as the Pbass destroy feeder fish:screwy:
 
well ity all depends on some factors but id be willing to bet u if u have your bicher in the tank and intoduce the pbass in there everything would be fine, well maybe depending on the size of your ornate, but its all a big chance
 
If it will fit in the pbass's mouth...then yes.
