Will they get along?

Hey all
I have a 6" TSN, a 10" walking catfish and a 4" pacu. Currently the walking catfish and the pacu share a tank. In about 2 months the TSN, hopefully about 8-9 inches by then, the walking, probably about 11-12" by then and the pacu, size?, will be moved into a 350 gal comunity tank. (I know they will out grow it, I grow them and sell them back to the LFS and then start again).
My question is, i have never kept a TSN with anything, I know they will eat anything smaller than them, but how aggessive are they?
Is the pacu at riskof being eaten (it is about 4" front to back and top to bottom) ?
The walking catfish is very friendly and likes to touch and rub the other fish, will the shy TSN attack her? or get really stressed out?
Any help is greatly appriciated.
