i don't think there would be any problem with the specific fish as an individual personalities but the shark may run into the lion and get stung because they react more with smell, especially when eating and they kind of just move stuff out of the way when they swim. And, the tank may not have enough room for the lion to get out of the way of the shark eating......then you have a 210 with only a lion.....
...
Prolly some better choices for you out there.....I will let some more experienced people chime in here though....

ok awesome thanks for the fast response! i was kinda worried about the lion stinging the shark also. i almost bought a lion today cause my GF really really loves them. But i wanted to get peoples opinions first cause i would hate to lose my shark.
