Pbass and tigrinus Do they make good tankmates

I thibk they would be OK with the tig, but i don't know too much about Pbasses. With these fish i think it will depend more on the individual fishes personality. Aggressive or placid?

Many people have kept this combo successfully. The only reason I wouldn't do it is because Pbass are such voracious eaters it makes it a more difficult task to get food to the rays and Tig. I have kept Rays with Tigs and Pbass without problems. The rays would sometimes harass the tig by blanketing him but never any damage.
I kept a 15" B. Juruense (false tigrinis) with an 8" ray and 8" peacock nass w/o any problems. IMO if a ray is healthy he/she is just as voracious of an eater as the Pbass!
Its hard to trust Peacockbass.. specially in groups. They have mauled arowanas, tigrinus
etc . . I would do it .. with caution.

as long as the tigrinus is bigger than the rays it should be fine
my tigrinus never has a tail streamer and as soon as it grows back the rays eat it again but never had any other damage
im not sure about the p.bass as i have never kept them
