Angel fish, plecos, gouramies (4 Inch semi-aggressive)? Just wondering if the Black red tailed shark would go well with these fish.
 
What size tank would it go into? Should be ok in a tank of over 40g. They get a bit aggressive as they grow, especially with other sharks and their own kind, and can attack smaller fish. Gouramis and angels are delicate but top dwellers whereas sharks normally hug the ground. They are usually fine with plecs and catfish.
 
How big of a tank? Also you should know they are territorial.
 
becareful ONLY have one because mine got vert territorial!
 
Mine got very aggressive and had to be removed. He had multiple hiding places and still chased everything around..

EDIT: When I had him with 4 3 Spot Gouramis, He wasnt aggressive at all. I guess they scared him. As soon as I took the Gouramis out for being aggressive, he took over where they left off. I hated to take him back to the LFS and trade him :/
