I have a 2,000g Tank that has 2 polka-dot Stingrays, and 2 Pearl Stingrays
What are some fish that would be compatible with them?
I was thinking a couple of arowanas or Arapaima gigas.
Would Small- Larger Chiclids be a good choice? Like a convicts or oscars
Thanks
 
a 2000 gal tank.. i must see pics, sorry i cant help u with the rays cali wont let us keep thhem, but i gotta see this 200 gal tank u speak off
 
Please show us some pics of your rays and tank, and as far as tank mates go I seen many tank with Arowanas and Chiclids but have personally never have keep them together but I think you really just have to watch there size difference so as long as the other can't eat each other.
 
Wow, We gotta see some pictures of your tank! By the way, your fish selections sound good for a tank of that size, I however would drop the convicts due to you keeping Arows. and Oscars. I would go with one more Arow. or maybe several more Oscars in place of the convicts. Just my opinion. Rock-On!!:headbang2 :clap :woot: :thumbsup:
 
I would stay away from the cichlids. Cichlids can be aggressive or even just curious fish. Any fish messing with a ray can lead to stress and possible death. Before anything says anything I know Peacock Bass are cichlids, but I think they would be perfect with an arrowana or two!
 
Large discus are very compatible, silver arrowanas also.

With such a large tank as long as the rays were alot bigger than the oscar and you found a grown up but mild mannered personality oscar it might work.
