Stocking help

[rockyofhockey]

Hey all!!!,

I have a 40G bowfront with the following:

1x senegalus polypterus
1x leopard ctenopoma
1x Bolivian ram

What other fish can I add without overstocking..? Aqua advisor has me around 80% ....

open to all ideas, thanks !!

They will get eaten by my leopard ctenopoma.. He ate my school of giant danios so I'm looking towards more singular fish that get to a good suze

Bala shark?

Bala sharks get massive!! They also prefer to be in schools... In my opinion I think they need at least 100 gallons

At only 32" long makes it hard to find something colorful that can stand up to your existing stock.

By the looks of your current stock you seem to like aggressive fish...

I do but crocodile fish have those NASTY teeth and I don't want him to eat any of my existing fish

They only get to like the size of a computer mouse. I'd be more afraid of the 15 inch bichir you're going to have eating it.

The bichir only gets to 8in. The ornate and other ones get big
