Depends on the size of your tank and the amount of hiding places you have.

the leoporinus might nip the sharks fins.

Bala sharks can be imcredibly fast and swift if need be. Once they learn who's boss, they tend to stay clear of those fish. They arent stupid.

If given plenty of swimming space, they should be fine. Keep in mind you'll have to multiply that space as they grow.

banded leoporinus are also fast. they're in the same family of fast agile swimmers

Dont do it asking for problems.

Again, it depends on the size of the tank. There will be no problems if he has a 52,000 gallon tank like arapaimag. Let's wait until he tells us his tank size.
