Hey guys and gals, I was planning on buying an 11in round motoro female to be put in the 300 gallon (check sig for sizes and quantities) and I just wanted some opinions on if you think it'll work out.

Background
I know the arows have their moments where they are aggressive to one another and nip. And lately I noticed the silver dollars nip at 2 of the arows fins. The gar is the most peaceful, the bass doesn't really bother anyone, and the tsnxrtc would be my main concern.

Rewind
Almost a year ago I had this same stocking (obviously everyone was a bit smaller) minus the 6 silver dollars and gar, but I had a 5-6in poly ornate and a 4in ntt dat in the same tank. I decided to purchase a 5in round motoro. Everything was great for about 3 weeks, until i came home on day and found the motoro beat up bad. I didn't see or know who did it, but after telling my friends and lfs guy I talk to, they all pointed at the poly!

So after all the info I can think of, what do you think?
Do you think it'll work out?
I appreciate any and all feedback; thanks all!
 
I do not see anything in you sig that would hurt a ray that size. The rtc/tsn will out grow everything real soon. Might have trouble getting food to it with that much fish that eat a lot.
 
If you can make sure the ray is getting enough to eat (feed it the same way as the gar if you have to), then I'd think that stock would be fine.
