Ok. Just get the test kit and try to return the Bala shark you have not because it will grow, and grow big. You may want to find another fish store if they don't have good fish.

the bala shark should be ok in my tank if i limit it to just one plus ive had her for a year since she was like an half inch ive had sharks for 13 years and this is the first issue ive had the other 3 were going to go in to another tank a 160 gal but they did last long enough for me to buy it

Bala Sharks should grow to 2 feet. But in your small tank they will never reach their full length.

Yes the average groth is 13 inches and i know the 1 i keep will never grow to that but thats ok it will still live a happy life

Actually not to tell you off or anything but fish will not really be happy if they are shortened. They will live shorter lives and wont be as health as other filly grow fish.

Yes i under stand where you are coming from and what you are saying but i can keep this fish as happy as i can saying that i have the bigest tank of the people i know and there really is no other place for this fish to go

There's always the store. But if you cant, that's ok. Just try to keep the fish healthy.

okay, so people keep saying that their so-and-so fish only got x long so it is fine, but the reason your fish is only getting x long is because the tank is only x big. it didn't stop growing because it felt happy at that size, it stopped growing because it had to.

grrr.

"i keep my great dane puppy in a cage sized for a border collie, but once it started touching the bars on each side it stopped growing, so i don't have to worry anymore... "

If the fish store is bad then find a new one. In my area there are at least 5 stores. And only 2 are good. I would keep looking for a better one.
