I was wondering if anyone can tell me how big is a school of bala sharks? Would 3 be enough to be considered a group or do I need 5? I am afraid 3 might lead to aggression. Also will the bala sharks bother a group of tiger barbs, or vice versa? Would the barbs pick on a pleco or a khuli loach? Sorry for all the questions, I am trying to figure this out.
 
It is my mythical monster fish tank. It isn't in existence yet but it will be at least 200 gallons. Long of course. I like to set up around my fish instead of fit my fish to my tank. That is why I am trying to settle on the fish I want.
 
I'd go 5 to keep aggression down. Balas get really big
