emperor angel and bamboo shark

is it ok to put a bamboo shark with an emperor angel fish? 240 gallon tank.

NOPE

Angels have a tendency to nip at fins and eyes causing infections and eventualy killing the shark

I agree with Mitzel. I also want to point out that "bamboo shark" is a little vague on word choice. There are numerous types of "bamboo sharks" like the grey, white-spotted, brownbanded, Arabian, and many more all growing to different sizes. Just would like to point that out.

Some have done it. Yes Mizel is correct they are known to sometimes nip at eyes and fins. You would have to monitor your tank and be ready to pull one of the two if you decide to try it.
