Could Sandbar sharks, Green Sea turtles, Spotted Eagle rays, and Bluespotted Ribbontail rays share a tank?

No, never try that. The sharks can try to eat the rays and turtle. It'll be worst if you mixed a hammerhead shark, since they can eat stingrays. |

Actually it'd work just fine. Tiger-, bull-, or hammerhead sharks might be problematic but sandbars shouldn't pose too much of a threat to the sea turtles.

I would take out the ribbontail rays, however. They're too small to really fit into an open, coastal tank like that, you'd never see them and they would get preyed on by the sandbars. Consider a grouper species, or maybe black/white-tip reef sharks? |

How about Amur Tiger/Barbary Deer? Don't worry, they're seperated by a moat, representing predator and prey. |

If the moat is wide and deep enough it might work. |

I'm working on my "South America Diversity" Building currently. And I'm working on an exhibit for my Southern Long-Nosed Armadillo, but I'd like to show off a mixed species exhibit. What do you think would be combined well with them? The exhibit has a desert look to it.

Well, Southern Long-snouted Armadillos aren't quite desert animals but they're very combinable with many small South American animals - sloths, monkeys, other armadillos, cavys... |

It would obviously work since both animals aren't in the same enclosure but why would you do that? Barbary Stags are from North Africa while Amur Tigers are from East Asia. They don't even life close to each other. On topic, could Three-banded Armadillos, Linnaeus' Two-toed Sloths, and Southern Night Monkeys be combined? Edited by Guat, Apr 9 2016, 09:05 PM.

Sorry, I edited the post. I put the wrong kind of armadillo by accident! EDIT: I do know they aren't desert species, but I wanted to get a Three-Banded Armadillo, or another desert South American dwelling armadillo, but the two I wanted to use were in a huge pack that I didn't want to add. Since it had older animal models that I didn't like and didn't want them. Edited by EsserWarrior, Apr 9 2016, 08:32 PM.

Any tips for tropical aviary and reef tank combinations? |

Still , Southern Long-Nosed armadillos is typically found in the grasslands and pampas of northern and central Argentina. |

Depends for the tank, are you doing large fish (sharks, rays, groupers) or small fish (self explanatory)? For the aviary, do you want a specific region or not? Your usual tropical species are ibises, a variety of waterfowl, Victoria crowned pigeons, turacos, toucans/aracaris/toucanets, and macaws. |

![]() This was going to be the enclosure for them, if you don't suggest having the armadillo in here. Then what South American species would you suggest? I'd lean towards a mammal. Possibly a combination of species in it. |

Oh I don't think the armadillos would have any issue in there, and as tall as it is... maybe some species of bat? |
