What fish will not be made quick dinner of??? I have him in a 125g with my LR piled on the two ends so the middle is empty. I read they are coral compatible? What fish can I get safely with him that won't be expensive lunch? I'm assuming that any shrimp would quickly be made lunch? So basically just wanting some ideas for other inhabitants to go with him. He's very active eating like a little pig on the first night....

i would be more worried about the stingray than the other fish you put in there, you have to be careful what you put in there because the sting rays cant defend them selfs to well, puffers large angels agressive triggers i would definatly stay away from mine is with 2 eels clown and a couple of damsels and he is doing just fine, i had a niger in there with him a while ago and he didnt mess with him at all. hope that helps and im sure someone will have a problem with something i said so....this is IMO...good luck and enjoy, i love stingrays does yours eat out of your hand yet?

Hahhahaa almost everything on here is IMO ;-) Just a few aren't! Yes he is eating out of our hand for the first night. The guy we got him from *LFS* Had him for 2 1/2 weeks and had been feeding him by hand the whole time so we put our hand down there and he happily gobbled away!!!! He's a cool little guy!

NO puffers ,triggers or larger angels he will end up a victim. As far as him eatting stuff no inverts they will be dinner and as long as everything else is fairly good size it should be ok. Mine was a pro at trapping small damsels.
