Irredescent Shark/paroon shark with rays

[biggfish]

Might be offered one for cheap or free and was wondering if they could coexist in the same tank. Thoughts?

seen them in the same tank together.... all depends on the particlar fish

my 2 foot id shark is very fast moving,spastic at times,eats off the bottom as well i do not think it would work but each fish is different .

waste of food IMO. they both get too large for any reasonable tank or even pond.

compatible, the ID, most likely, but the spastic movements are annoying. the Paroon, I wouldn't risk, I have seen some pretty aggressive ones, at least at young age/size.

So far so good.

My IR is very very calm though.

Ive done this mix, just depends on the fish. Thou they eat sooooo much just make sure everybody in the tank gets their fill....

Really? I thought they were picky eaters.

Mine would eat ANYTHING and EVERYTHING!!!

i would imagine that the p/i sharks are so active that it would stress out the ray...

ya the food thing would be tough once the id shark gets like this..
