Nice looking angel loach wolf!
SO yo whent ahead and got the parma? its one of the biggest and strongest bichirs so when he gets old and venerable make sure nothing spooks him or he can quite feasbly crack the tank. I gotta say that kingsleyae looks nice and relaxed in his new home, great buys both :)

really, even a 10mm tank?
I have plans for a 52"X24"x24" tank soon but there are some issues with the property owners atm, over the amount of tanks I already have.
so do you think that 10mm will be sufficient or should I go up one level?
never realised its 10mm that should be fine, my ornates are back in their 12 mm and they go crazy now and then, some real force thrown around in there! No it should be fine, at least its not an enderlichii!
How long is he now? it looks as if hes aproaching sub adult size
If you can get him into the 52 that would be ideal, as polypterus weeksii, delhezi, senegaulus, or polli are better suited to smaller tanks
the real big guys to be wary of are ornates, enderlichii, lapradei, and especially congicus (congicus easilly obtaining a metre, and it is not unknown for a growth rate of 25-30cm per year which is damn fast for a bichir)
