	Senegal Bicher Help!!!!
Drifter Small Fry Posts: 1 Kudos: 1 Votes: 0 Registered: 05-Sep-2004	Hello everyone! Long time reader, first time poster. I have a 3 inch Senegal Bicher who lives in a 55gal tank with a common pleco and three dwarf gouramis. A week ago, I transfered him to my 125gal tank which houses 2 ropefish, a 4 inch Oscar and a zebra pleco. He now spends all day and all night trying to jump out of the tank(which is covered). Do ropefish and bichers not get along? They do not fight and my water conditions are not an issue. So why is he so upset and want out? The Oscar pays no attention to him either.

Ropefish and senegal bichirs do fine together, but as Klee pointed out, the bichir will, in time, become a threat to your zebra pleco.
