rope fish

I have a 75 gallon and a 100 gallon aquarium, and I would like to know how many rope fish and Senegal bichirs I can keep together in each tank (if possible). I don't think that aggression will be a problem, because the rope fish will be larger than the bichir. I would prefer to keep them in my...

I recently got a 8” rope fish for my 55 gallon tank, 2 days ago he started getting little white bubbles all over his body, I initially thought they were bubbles because he likes to swim through the bubble pad stone. But considering they did not go away; rather increase in amount, I have my...

A few weeks ago I was able to buy some fish for my future large tank and I was hoping some of you would have some suggestions.

I plan to get a 75 Gallon tank in the FAR future, but I am absolutely determined to get rope fish for the tank. However, despite being peaceful, these guys like their midnight snacks, so small tankmates are out of the question. Could I get some suggestions for tank mates? I'd like 1xBig Fish+X...

Hello all! So before we get going.. All water parameters are normal. It’s a black water tank, not as planted as we’d like just yet but doing great so far. We added two rope fish a week ago and they haven’t taken to eating just yet. The big one (the one in question here) ate an earth room and...

I am currently planning to stock a 90 gallon tank. It is currently completely empty, and filtration isn’t a problem, because I am willing to add more if needed. I am planning to put a Senegal bichir, but I don’t know what other fish should go in as well. I am interested in ropefish and Congo...

Hello,   I'm asking before I take action as that always seems to make the outcome more positive.   I recently acquired a rope fish from my LFS. I did my research and read that because they've never been bred in captivity that they should be fed live or frozen food. I purchased frozen blood...
