I'm not really sure about tank mates. He is super passive and he is easily bullied. He and the blue acara have been tankmates for about 6 months, that blue acara would be lost without him, but Mortimer is indifferent. I don't feel like there is a great assortment of larger than his mouth, peaceful, attractive fish.

I am so sorry your fishes froze, that is heartbreaking. :(

I wish I could.
:( this one isn't for either of my puffers, just the bichir and the acara. My puffers are solo in individual tanks, I was hoping to house them together, but one is mean and one is shy.
