I've hear of Bichirs taking chunks out of ray disc.

For now, you should do ok. But have your priorties set on who is staying & who will be going when they grow.

keep them well fed so that the bichirs wont have an urge to take chunks out of the ray.. its hard to say what will happen.. but the bites wont be too serious unless u got some of the bigger bichrs inside..
