compatibility

[rottbo]

so I want to [ut my rays in with my other big fish in the 750.... now I know that one of the fish is not compatible... but I am not sure about some of the others...
I have 5 motoro stingrays
14" female
12" male x2
10" male
6" female
the inhabitants in the 750 are (sizes just estimate I havent recently measured these fish)
26" Silver Aro
24" albino channel cat
22" common pleco ( this guy will go into a different tank if the stingrays go in)
15" Pike cichlid (venezuela sp.)
15" pangasius cat
12" pangasius cat
11" midas


do you guys think that everything minus the pleco would get along all right????

I would be more worried about the pleco than anything else.
In a smaller tank the cats might be a problem, but I bet in something that large they'll be ok.

Yeah I have heard of horror stories were owners come home to a half eaten ray by a pleco... he is gonna go into the 150 with some other cichlids..... I want to do it I think I will try and switch them tommorow

Maybe the large albino cat... I once had one.. And with that small motoro cruising around... Maybe I'm wrong. But I wouldn't keep that guy in there.

hows the midas temperment?

was mean as heck untill I put that big pike in and now he is a little more docile.... the albino channel cat will only eat Hikari Cichlid Gold I have tried to get him on other things even fresh shrimp and he will not eat them so I am not to worried about him plus he is a big teddy bear he doesnt bother anyone unless he bumos into them while he is eating which is totally an accident because of the wya he eats
