Shark is probably enough work on it's own.

I think if you did both, one would suffer, and most likely the shark.

LPS have sharp skeletons and could also pose issues to the soft underside of the shark.

I would avoid the shark, personally.

Good luck.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

Default Shark reefs

I have a 500 with 3 epaulette sharks, and a whack of other fish, they get along fine. Corals are mostly softies as they knock things all over the place.

As far as sharp skeletons and the underside of sharks, Epaulettes are designed for sneaking through small crevices, and are super adaptable. I have about 35 fish in there as well, mostly tangs and rabbitfish, but also have 3 hawkfish, maroon clowns, some dotty backs, basslets, small pompano, and eight to ten squirrelfish. The epaulettes dont go after the fish at all.

Bamboo sharks get big and are quite boring in my opinion so I would skip that one if I were you.

Nate
