Just wondering if any of the moray eels are safe to keep with a marbled/coral catshark. If not what kind are? Also my filtration, 220 gallon tank 20% water changes weekly, filter socks, bubble magus curve 9 plus skimmer rated for 400 gallon tank. 240 pounds of sand/rock. Possibly adding a refugium down the road.

I'd say yes in the morrays cause they are a no nonsense fish and a honeycomb moray would look great with a panther grouper and the coral banded shark

The shark needs at least a 400 gallon tank. Nothing smaller.
Well I've done a lot of research and concluded that a 220 will be more than sufficient for a marbled cat shark, these sharks max out at 24 inches, most likely at 20 inches. Also these sharks are not active swimmers like black tip reef sharks. They will be most active at feeding time, most of their time is spent in caves or on the sand bed.

Yea morrays are safe with cat sharks especially the big ones a honey comb moray would look really cool with one and also I thing groupers would be safe
