Video of my 11inch Bala

beautiful fish, I love balas but have no room.. :(
 
Awesome bala....I too, wish I had the room...someday.
 
Very nice fish.

I thought they never grew to full size in captivity? :huh:

Just kidding, we've had a bala shark history the last couple weeks...

They should be kept in groups :( , but I would say having the right sized tank is the single most important factor in keeping a fish healthy.

Ever had problems with him spooking or jumping?
 
Thanks for the Kudos on the bala

Thanks for the comments on my Bala. He has not freaked out or been spooked as reported. He gets excited at feeding time. He gets verticle and likes to hit his chow from the bottom. He has never breached the water. He's real good about knowing his tank. He gets going fast but deverts at the end of the tank. Almost like small dogs when they do laps in the living room.
 
wow, nice bala. thanks for rescuing it from that little tank at petco!
 
beautiful...
 
well i didnt watch the video since it prob wont load on this s****y dialup but i hope you have a school of them atleast 6 and that tank is way to small they need somethin atleast 150gallons a 12"constantly moving fish is pretty cramped in a 72 bowfront
