The answer will be Al2(SO4)3 + Ni2+. Al has 3+charges, SO4 has 2- charge and since NI and SO4 don't have charges, that indicate that Ni has to have 2+charges.

This is another redox reaction. The Al will reduce the Ni2+ions to nickel metal:

2Al + 3Ni2+ ---> 2Al3+ + 3Ni

If you want the full equation, you will have to write in the correct formulae of nickel sulphate (which you've got) and aluminium sulphate.
