cool can you have a lungfish in your tank

[n03lzz]

@alexander76675

I've seen a african lungfish in a fish tank of a pet store... but i don't think you can keep such giants in an ordinary tank.

How are lungfish and rainbows able to co-exist? aren't lungfish carnivorous?

[Tinnesen89]

ones i had a african lungfish about that size in my tank, tank is a 540l....but i could only have him and nothing else in there, exept small neons n such....it ate everything and made a huge mess with the gravel....werry cool fish but i had to give it away

Fun Fact: The Lungfish is called Lungfish because humans use it for lung transplantation.
