Can sharks live with goldfish???

[thayayballa]

i have a 135 gallon tank and i have some goldfish and kois. will a small shark about 6'' get a long with the other fish?

goldfish are cold wanter and need to be kept at lower temp then tropical sharks.

No.

welll.... i'd plan on what to do with the koi, they do get far too large for a 135G tank. try about 3 feet.


no, they have different water climate requirements.

sharks become aggressive anyways and will prolly kill the goldfish in the long run. I wouldnt risk it.

 

[loaches r cool]

I dont see a bala shark killing a goldfish... and they are totaly non-aggressive from what I have seen. But like everyoine esle has said they are tropical fish and need mid 70's F to live.

Balas are not the only tropical fish called sharks.

I think kois need around 1000 gallons..atleast acording to liveaquaria they do. I was thinking about getting a tattoo of one.

tropical fish cant live with goldfish. "sharks" are tropical fish and therefore need water that is at least 77 degrees. goldfish though, are coldwater fish. they are called so for a reason. it is because they need their water around 63-70 degrees.
