Has anyone ever had the above combination?
I have the opportunity to get a 10" Aimara and wondered whether it would co-exist with Aimara?

Rivers Lakes & Dams are much larger than my tank though 
I hope it would work though, just don't see it done often

Mala and Aimara are night and day. From what I have seen, Aimara needs to be w/lots of mid/upper level swimmers to coexist. Its a huge risk as Aimara are known to attack nets (just an example of aggression)... but its getting it to work is where the prize lays
I would guess as long as he is under 15-18" that the brutal personality they carry would be absent. Giving you higher chances for it to work... I would try it and have a Tank Divider or 2nd cycled tank ready to seperate. I usually try new combos on my days off since I am not a fan of the JDM (less tankmates, higher chance's of aggression).
I find less tank mates mean its usually a more aggressive tank aswel.
I could get a cycled tank prepared for him incase it all goes Pete Tong.
It's definately a mix i'd be happy with if it was successful just not heard of anyone having that mix already?

Ok Mala and Aimara are different.
MY point of view like fisher and keeping fish for 9 years is that an Aimara Smaller or Same Size of the P. Bass will happen NOTHING.
This fish doesn't eat what doesn't fit, they are not catfish...I'm used to this fishes, they are not that brutal as Jeremy and other people says...
They will not bite you while you swin in a lake or spot of water, they you not carry a 2 years old children down to the deep.
Good luck with the future new fish. If we don't try, we will never know..
