The fish I like are the bala silver sharks you mention and I see these are tropical fish not cold water.
Would you be able to advise as to what would be good fish to go along with bala silver sharks?
amru1 said:Thanks Coursair - they certainly do get fat.
I don't have an aquarium yet - something i am looking to start so can get a large enough tank to factor in their future growth.
Am I right in assuming I should not have balas with Chichilid type fish?
There are two other fish in the link fish tank picture , free photo sharing
The 5 x yellow& black fish and the 4 x blue and white stipeed fish at the bottom of the tank. Do you know what type of fish these are please and can they live with Balas?
