My 6" to 7" dels are kept with my endies around 12" to 13" so size diff arent so much for me now. I think the only taboo is keeping congicus with smaller size bichirs.

Agreed, mixing different sized bichirs in a comm is possible but there are always risks. I had a 13inch endi fighting off another endi of a slightly bigger size. It was biting it's pelvic fins all the time! The appetite of the former was greatly affected due to this stress! There was also once where my 4 inch ornate swallowed a 3 inch endi! It was heart-wrenching especially after painstakingly squatting in front of the tank in the LFS for so long!

Those shots are taken with 2 flash above the tank. I try to get a shot of my "studio" for your reference when I'm home tonight.

Most of my shots was taken with tips from amiidae.
