Aussie lunglish share same tank with Royal Pleco?

[Star-Flog]

Is Aussie Lungfish non-aggressive or least aggressive among all 6 species of lungfish?
Would it be possible to share the same 6ft tank with a 12" Royal Pleco or not advisable?

yes the aussie is the least aggressive of the lung fishes. but i don't know anything about the royal pleco's behaviors to help you with compatability.

i wouldnt risk it....

The Australian LungFish should do well with your Royal. The Tank sounds very big, which is cool! Best of Luck to you. By the way, Do you already have an Australian Lungfish, or just getting ready to get one??

I would not do it because the royal main suck on the skin of the lung.

Lou, Even in a Tank that big?? I have never had any problems with my Royal Pleco and South American LungFish. Now the African, Different story; he's in a tank all by himself for a reason. Big Time Attitude!

I HAVE EIGHT ROYAL PLECOS AND THE ONLY THING THEY BOTHER IS EACH OTHER..
AND I HAD MY 2FT MARBELED AFRICAN LUNGFISH IN WITH MY 12" ROYAL, NEVER HAD PROBLEMS....
