possible to keep it together

5 inch to 8inch is very fast within 2 mnths or even lesser if u feed it right and if ur endi is an aggressive eater.

possible to keep it with IT as long cannot fit the mouth of the endi

Notice that most bros are keeping Endlicheri, but I understand that their stripes and colours do fade as they grow.

Anybody can advise whether other birchir types such as Ornate, Lapradei, Delhezi become more beautiful as they get bigger?

The stripes of a nice endlicherie does not fade when they grow. You have to select those that are dark thick vertical stripes. They do not look so nice when they are babies but when they grow, the vertical stripes remain. Those with nice horizontal stripes will appear stripe - less when they grow because the stripes have been stretched when they become bigger. The lighting, background, gravel and ph also matters. They prefer softer And dark water. I have gone through at least 50 pieces of endlicheries and am just sharing from experience. Long live these Jurassic creatures!
