Coleoidea in predator tank?

[steenmillinder]

hi... i'm setting up i 720 liter tank with a lot of caves and if possible whould like to ad any Coleoidea.

The fish list will be: coral hind miniata, odonus niger trigger, lunare wresse, snowflake moray, antanata lion and i small shark somthing like a bamboo...

I have a bad feeling, shark and snowflake? but i have to ask the experts before dismissing it...

i'v just seen a vulgaris pus in my LFS, i'm in love! please somone tell me if it whould be possible, or what fish whould cause the biggest problem, so that i might remove og not add it...

I think they need a tank all their own!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and if your a newbie, sharks would be a no no IMHO

hmmm... ok, they are just SO facinating animals... and yeah, i'm pretty much a nube, had salt for at year now and cichlids for some years before that, and i've read some books, but still a nube and will still be for many years to come...
I know vulgaris have been kept in reeftanks here in denmark till they spawned and died, but i find hard to get any info on the danish forum(not that RC is much better, one reply to a stupid on the worlds biggest marine forum? WOW!!! awsome! the wealth the wealth!! hahahah i'm not bitter, iz cool... i just quit smoking)...

p.s. what is IMHO ?

IMHO = in my honest opinion

Bamboo shark and Snowflake Moray are both potential predators of cephalopods. The trigger may also enjoy an octopus meal, or be a meal itself. Lunar wrasse could be eaten.

Honestly I think an octopus should be kept in a speceis tank. That doesn't mean it couldn't be a reef/species tank, but I would avoid any other fish and larger crustations.

yeah, they say that also on www.tonmo.com... hmm...
