Very nice fish FM !! He looks very healthy and so does the little one ! Thanks for sharing with us !
nice fish, the top fin looks especially cool. Just curious what's the width of your tank and did you raise this bala up from a baby or got it when it's already big? thanksfishmonkey said:We cal the Bala Proti short for Proteus. The little 3 inch Bala is "BP" for baby proti. Proti has been living Large in my 72G Bow Front.

i've PMed him about this matter, since we both live in anchorage. he got it already big from our local petco. they were keeping it in a little 30-40 gallon tank with some black skirts. I assume it was there because someone retured it.gagaliya said:nice fish, the top fin looks especially cool.

what do you mean debate they need big tanks plain and simple...lol...no way around itWeb Gazelle said:That's a nice looking fish. PLease can we avoid a debate on what size of tank a Bala Shark should be kept in.

it would be very interesting to see if the bala would have gotten to the same size if it was raised in the 72G. Actually i think the OP has another small bala in his tank, guess he will find out in a few years.fishcatch22 said:i've PMed him about this matter, since we both live in anchorage. he got it already big from our local petco. they were keeping it in a little 30-40 gallon tank with some black skirts.
