Marine fish aren't big around here so I need some names to research and order in.

My bamboo and white spotted bamboo destroyed 6 green gromis overnight a few months ago.

The bamboos about 2.2ft, White spotted bamboo is just under 2ft. There's also a coral cat in there but he never comes out of his rocks.

The tanks 10x4x3ft.
 
Surprise no one commented, I'm usually not in the shark section to often, how ever if your still looking for tank mates I've seen puffers, groupers, bat fish, angel fish, trigger fish, lion fish, pilot fish...list goes on and on. Your going to have to think big for the safety of the fish from the sharks, but also keep in mind certain angels and triggers will go for eyes of the sharks...

Also last but not least why not sting rays? Small ones of coarse like yellow rays

Happy Holidays and Good Luck
 
I'd go with more schooling fish. Are you sure it was the bamboos and not the coral cat getting the chromis?
Also maybe look into feeding more. A full shark won't hunt tankmates.
 
Well - generally Angels, Puffers, Triggers and Lions aren't the best tank mates for bamboo sharks. Neither are smaller fish like Clownfish, Chromis, and Damsels.

The best tankmate for bamboo sharks are the following types- Pilot Fish, Foxface, Groupers, and Eels, in addition to the round stingrays, Epaulettes and Coral Catsharks.
 
+1 to the above post...this is exactly why I don't have sharks don't know the right info, just look at what people keep with them (probably people who don't know what thier doing lol)
 
any large to medium cods will be fine, i seen a couple of shark tanks on you tube housing large tangs and sharks but i have not tried this myself
