Stingray Tankmates

[lozza]

Hi could anyone suggest any large cichlids to go with my two motoro cross pearl pups. They are both around 7".

I was thinking things such as severums etc

Does anyone else know any interesting larger fish that would go with the rays?

Cheers Laurence

I have red bay snooks with mine and I am very happy with this combo. Some people keep peacock bass but most of those species get really big. Severums would not be a bad chose.

i fancy the look of electric blue jack dempsys or dwarf pikes

would they be okay?

ebjd's could be ok! normal jd's work fine with my motoro.
dwarf pikes (crenicichla?) will become food in no time!

I kept severums with my motoros in the past. No problems with either.

I've kept 7 severums and 2 snooks for the past 6 months or so with mine and haven't had any problems.

is there any larger pikes or snakeheads which would be okay though??

Cheers
