i just bought three little bala sharks and i have a 30 gallon tank. How long will i be able to keep them in it

Question

How long will it take till they out grow the 30 gallon tank?

Answer 1

It really depends on several things such as their current size and how well you care for them. But assuming they are the typical 2-3" fish found in most stores and assuming you give them proper care, you should have about a year before they outgrow your tank.

Answer 2

dude, get a biger tank asap. I use to keep about a dozen or so tropical fish in a 60 gallon tank. 30 gallons is not that much. You think it is, but it's a normal size tank. Theyre starter kit tanks. So get a bigger tank asap. Try going for a 120 gallon, 4 times what you have now. That should be good for your 3 sharks. And should last you for a couple of years....

I personally suggest having a custom tank made. if you have the money to buy the sharks and take care of them then you have the money for a custom tank. That way it will be a way cooler show off for your sharks. I suggest this only because I make custom tanks and stock them if so desired.

Answer 3

I would say about 8-12 months, Just dont add any other fish, And dont listen to people that give you the ' 1 inch of fish per galon of water patter' .
