Nice. I had a WAL and it never showed any aggression towards any of my other fish, but I might have just gotten lucky. Does it have its own tank?
no it just needs to have a big tank to have tankmates i saw one bite a good chunk of a buttakoferi cichlid face off it lost its right eye that was a Protopterus aethiopicus not the west african lungfish so i dont now if there as mean
 
Right now i have a 7-8"TSN catfish,a 7-8"Clown Knife(wich i heard are usually safe with these guys)a 3"Trimac and 2-3"Port Cichlids all in a 125 gal tank.

Lungfish arnt really too active fish so i think that i should be fine for a long time.
I will be getting rid or moving all of my smaller guys soon so there will only be the TSN and the Clown Knife.
 
WAL For life!! I Keep one in the shed cause my tank (924 gallons) is to small. it will eat everything (mice,rat, steaks, sausage) I had to move it because it was getting agressive towards me, and i'm also a proud owner of 10 fingers an wanting to keep them.

lol your too funny:ROFL:
 
hihi i try with my bad english. but i can't insert a dutch joke, cause it wil sound strange if translated in english.
But i'm serious, i love my WAL but i also want to keep my own bodyparts attached to my own body and not his stomach.
Unfortunally i haven't met any Dutch people with a WAL. There was one on marktplaats (dutch markerplace) Monsterfishkeepers are rare in Holland. (for as far as I know)
Even good equipment is hard to get here, I have to drive to Germany to get my stuff cheaper. In my place i can't even find Profilux Parts, 380V pumps or CO2 for 3000 liter (924 gallon)
If i tell them i have a 900 gallon tank with my "bioloog" (Sump??) about 15 meter from my aquarium in my shed. They think i'm talking b*llsh*t, until they've seen the tank.
