Well, captive environment, limited mate selection, he could keep on harrassing her... keep an eye on it, if she looks lethargic, or is constantly being chased, I'd be tempted remover her/him for a bit.

things are looking a bit better with the female leo today she was swimming around looking like a happy unstressed ray today until i went and opened the cover glasses to feed then she covered herself with sand and hasnt moved for a few hours
i have left the cover glasses open a bit then when she comes back out i will try to feed again

I've just had a thought... if someone decided to break into your shed, they are going to have one hell of a surprise 
Have you considered security on this building?

Glad she is doing better. She looks absolutely awful in the picture. Sometimes it is better not to move the fish. How are you doing? Still think you need to submit this tank for TOTM. It's great!

What a stunning tank!
I know very little about the fish in it, but they look amazing!
The Carettochelys is a bit more up my street. Its good to see someone keeping it in a tank thats going to be big enough for it too - wild females reach a carapace length of 2.5'+! I've never come across them going after fish - they're normally pretty vegetarian (their wild diet comprises a lot of fruit that falls into their rivers in PNG)- a friend of mine has two that swallow tomatoes like pills! (though they are in seperate tanks as they can be vicious buggers when it comes to territory).
True softshells aren't suitable to keep with fish, just as an fyi. A Nile softy will get as big as the fly, but would tear your lovely fish to pieces! even the aro...
Once again, awesome tank!

i would not of been brave enough to leave them to it i would of taken her out
she is fine now not a mark on her
if i would have taken her out she was history for sure
A woman that doesn't can be more harmful in the long term
Is that a bengal I see admiring your fishy chums?
