Puffer and bichir?

Is there any way on earth you could get a large FW puffer (fahaka or something) and a bichir to work together? Or is it an absurd idea?

A fahaka plus anything is a bad idea. A bichir would definately not work with a Fahaka. However, I have successfully kept an A. Modestus with a Senegal. I wouldn't suggest even trying it with a fahaka, though.

Thanks :)
I was wondering about any sort of FW puffer really.

My modestus lives with a large, Royal pleco.

I didn't think that royal plecos were predatory though...

Ok.
Yeah, I was just wondering if the predatory nature of a bichir would clash with a puffer. :) I dunno
I do love those fancy plecos though. My L-187b, though not that fancy, is still such a fun little guy :D

There are so many different species of plecos, they have been assigned L-numbers, rather than names.
