if you get a large tank; careful since asian golden arownas tend to bite a chunk off leopoldi stingrays.
and what kind of discus, stingray, and arowanas are you getting?
since the discus will be arowana food someday...

we actually have a member that keeps an asian arow, rays and discus together

this tank defies the laws of compatability

Wow. 5-6" black aro.

IT DIDN'T WORK ON MY TANK. I HAVE A RTG 9", 6"- 8" DISCUS. TOTAL 7 OF THEM IN A 55 GAL, BIT NEVER STOP, NOT FOR FOOD, NO MATTER THE SIZE OF THE DISCUS. FINALLY GET SEPARATE FOR PEACE (MY DISCUS).

Discus = midnight snack for stingrays when they get large enough.
Might work for a while but its a risk.

I think if you feed them enough food and have enough hiding space, the aro and ray would leave the discus alone. Also you might want to get an aro that hasnt touched live food at all in its entire lifetime or raise one from young without live food and just maybe it might work out... like those aros living together with tiny neons in huge planted tanks.
