Agressive tank landscaping

[casey75]

I got a 125 gal tank and I wanted to get a small bamboo shark and an a juv. emperor angel. Well I dont know what type of rock landscaping I should use. This is my first time with doing an aggressive tank, I usually do reef tanks. Any pics of some tanks or some tips about the landscaping. thanks

i dont think 125 will be big enough for shark, but i dont know anything

A lot of people who have had sharks with angels report that the angels have a tendancy to nip on the shark's cartiledge (Spelling).

Yea, its tough to pair up sharks with other creatures, but they best get along with rays, docile eels and lions. They are just so vulnerable in a tank that a tang or an angel, or definitely a trigger, will nip at their eyes and fins and soft skin. Wat would work best for aquascaping though is like 2 seperate rock structues, one on each side of the tank. Check out Jerrybsal's tank. His a lil bit bigger, but ull get the idea.

!25 is not big enough for a shark. THey need at least a 180 gallon tank. if u get it even though you will be cramping it when it is fully grown than caves wont work. Ask gasguzzler. His shark would knock em down every week.

well i guess i wont get a shark if I cant get any cool fish because they will nip at them. thanks for the info

Yeah, my 27" female bamboo does a really good job of massacreing the caves I try to build. Unless you have another larger tank already in your possesion, dont try a shark.
