I have wanted a senegal bichir for a while now and was wondering if I would be able to keep one in my current setup. The tank is 60 gallons and is 2 ft tall, 4 ft long, and 1 ft wide. THe water in my area is hard and alkaline. The current inhabitants of the tank is an all male african cichlid tank with 1 cobalt zebra, 2 red zebra, 1 kenyi, 1 unidentified peacock, 1 fish that was labeled as a johani (though I believe it is something else), and one featherfin syno. The current inhabitants all get along well and have plenty of hiding spots and caves. If I were to get one it would most likely be introduced with a couple more cichlids in order to spread out aggression, accompanied with a rearranging of the decor. Please let me know what you think. Can I keep one of these fish or do I not have a suitable tank? Thank you.
