Hey! I got a 29 gallon tank with 2 black sharks , 1 red tale shark, 1 id shark , 1 albino corydoras , 1 neon tetra, 1 danio and 1 algae eater! Is this a good mix? Also can i add one gold fish in? If not , why cant i?
 
Congratulations on your new tank, unfortunately I have bad news. First of all, did you cycle your tank? Your tank size is too small for so much sharks. The neon tetra will have a bad time because it is a schooling fish, it needs 6 or more of its type.
 
The neon tetra, cory and danio i got with the tank from their previous owner, for free. He said he hasn't fed them in weeks ect. There all over 7 years old, the sharks were bought this last few weeks.
 
Yeah this tank is just way too small for the sharks. In all honesty, no "shark" belongs In a 29 gallon. You should rehome or return them and get more neon tetras, corydoras and danios
