any one know any good companions for peacock bass.
and would they be ok with these fish, silver aro, northern pike, bala shark, dinosaur eel,opoline gurami, black ghost knife, tt eel and a fire eel. oh and would they be ok with any type of stingray?

thanks
 
I think they'd be O.K. with the aro. Not sure about the others.
 
If you have a large enough tank I'd suggest the aro. The pike will get HUGE so not sure about him. the Bala shark is probably okay if you get it abit bigger than the bass because in my experience they don't grow really fast so if not careful the bas will eat him (or you just get a big one). The dinosaur bichir is basically good with anything. I have one with my oscar and ckf and jd and no one even looks at him twice. I'd say no to the opaline becasue the bass will outgrow and probably eat it. Black ghost knife would have to be a good size with lots of hiding places (you may not see him alot), don't know what a tt eel is haha, and i'd say yeah to the fire eel! hope i helped! and good luck
 
I have a silver aro and a striped LMB with my two peacocks and everything is cool
 
i've heard they're good with rays, they'd definitely eat the opaline and depending on what size the bichirs and peacock are possibly even the bichirs would be eaten
