Any species I could reasonable combine with vicuna? I cannot do an aviary, so no bird species, please. |

You could do rheas. You don't need an aviary for that. |

If I'm not mistaken, vicuñas/llamas/alpacas are also often combined with giant anteaters (and tapirs but less certain about that), though they don't occur in the same region. |

So I had a question about an RL combo. When I went to the zoo yesterday I saw that they put a lion tailed macaque (fricken amazing) in with the Celebes Macaques. Do you think this could work out in the long run? |

I think with Lion-tailed Macaques being mainly arboreal and Celebes Macaques mainly terrestrial, they will both at least have their own space... To be fair, they probably can live together in the long run, but may not necessarily enjoy each others presence much (considering Lion-tailed Macaques can be aggressively territorial, this could potentially lead to major problems if there are males of both species in the enclosure)
If I recall Taronga Zoo used to keep chimpanzees with Jackals. An odd mix since they probably would never meet and don't live in the same sort of habitat, and obviously didn't work out since they had to be separated (images I've seen... The jackals look terrified of the chimpanzees, and I'm not surprised - chimpanzees are evil ) A smaller primate might work out, like a vervet, but don't quote me on that.

I don't think so, vervets seem the right size to get eaten. Honestly, the only thing I'd put jackals with are probably rhinos, even if it sounds crazy rhinos are just too big and jackals agile enough so they shouldn't really bother each other. |

Can I mix the following- Blacktip Reef sharks and Gray Reef sharks? Green Sea turtle and Kemp's Ridley Sea turtles (in another tank)? (Also, do Guitarfish live in kelp forests?) (ALSO also, Can I mix the Guitarfish with Leopard sharks, Kelp bass, and California sheepheads?) Edited by TheToastinator, Sep 8 2015, 05:45 PM.

Guitarfish live in a variety of marine habitats including the kelp forest. |

I found it in a Kelp forest pack so I'll put it there. What other species could I mix in this Kelp forest tank? So far, I have- Leopard sharks Kelp bass California sheephead Guitarfish |

Throwing cuttlefish in a fish tank is a TERRIBLE idea. As for your other combos, blacktips and gray reef sharks could work, the sea turtle one has potential but it depends a lot of personalities, as some sea turtles can be aggressive and greens are larger than Kemps IIRC. Also regarding the guitarfish, I'm guessing you are talking about Whalebite's imported guitarfish. That one is actually a Giant Guitarfish, which is not endemic to Kelp Forests, so I wouldn't put it in there. Alternatively there's a couple of rays you can use (a bullseye stingray in a pack on Zeros site, and a skate in one of Crook's ray packs at Gaia). |

What species of fish can I put in the tank with the following- Humphead wrasse Sandbar shark Webbegong Zebra shark Manta ray Spotted Eagle ray I'd prefer fish from the same region as the rest of them (Indo-Pacific reefs near S.E. Asia). Thanks.

I'd say Giant grouper (Not goliath, that's a different species), carangidae, barracuda, large snappers. |
