They may both be adapted to brackish water, so there's no problem with that regard, but Colombians are predators and will eat anything they can, including their tankmates. Your mollies sound like a nice size to become feeders for your sharks.

Colombians are compatible with mollies and they both like brackish water. You might want to grow the mollies out about through before adding them as the sharks can be aggressive and may eat the mollies with that big of a size difference.

The sharks will eat the mollies when the grow up, The pleco and snail do not like brackish water, so remove them!

to respond to your questions, sure each and every physique of those fish could nicely be in an identical tank with out issues. Guppies are offered as tropical yet are if truth be told chilly water fish so as that they are going to be advantageous. removing organic and organic waste on a on a daily basis foundation isn't mandatory till you have an extremely tiny tank. if so no the three goldfish could desire to hit upon a greater domicile. as quickly as a week applying a gravel siphon to suck the waste from the backside of the tank will do advantageous. bear in mind attempt to no longer do away with extra tan 25% of the water at any cleansing. How super is your tank? Your comets have the skill to attain lengths exceeding 2 ft. i'll assume your speckeled goldfish is a shub and he can attain around 8-10 inches +. in case you go with extra feel free to e mail me.

Strange - I allways thought of Mollies as community fish - now if you mentioned Gourmais's I would understand, the biggest prob I had with them was that they are very prone to white spot.
Theoretically they should be ok ~ you might want to try them in the tank and see how they all react.

I have about 50+ mollies and never had a problem with them being aggressive, give it a try!

I think before you do this, print up some posters, put in an ad., and sell tickets! For the show opener, put a gerbil and a hampster in a cage together! Then maybe some cock fighting, and pit bulls!!
