The only issue I can think of if the Oscar’s matured and paired off but that will take years because their juveniles.
That’s true, and it’s so hard sexing Oscar’s lol. So far they both get along. It’s just the JD being an a** to my albino tiger rn. Which is why I’m planning on getting rid of him although I don’t want too. And I really like bichirs as well so I wanted to keep all 3 together but like for life till they die. Not as a grow out, so which is why I want to make the right decision.

Ornate and Endlicheri aren't that active so should be ok with the Ornate.

Nice now the only problem I have is that none of my LFS gets ornates often.. they’re rare here in GA. And if they do they come in at like 2-3 inches so I’m scared it won’t catch up to my Oscar’s :/
