Elephant nose
« on: May 11, 2014, 04:50:54 PM »
I have a 90 gallon planted tank with a sand bottom.  I have four colorful angelfish living with two elephant nose.  The elephant nose are eating blood worms.  I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions on compatible fish with elephant nose?

They will get outcompeted for food easily from what I researched a long while back so nothing super aggressive.  Maybe similar riverine species (West African IIRC) but not say red jewels or tilapia variants.  Maybe an African brown knife and or senegal bichir or several.
