hey i just got here!!! this is great . i got to talk about my new fish.."Brackish fish" . and showed off what they looked like. I have a 55 gallon tank with 6 danio barbs,5 tiger basbs, 5 rosys, 2 bala sharks, 2 brackishes, & 2 suckers..... do you think i should get some more.... i will if i can...and if i can any segestions?
Hey bell , welcome to fishlore!!!!! your tank is so cooool!!! i like the bala shark, it will grow much bigger, i don't think u should add more fish, cause suckers grow up to 12"-18". the rule is 1" of fish per gallon of water.

... you can't see my suckers... skuz is in his ship..thats why we call it "Skuz's ship" and mr. sucker is in the cave... there not that small any more but they sure can hide... if you can look at my gallery ive got pics of them..in the cave and skuz in his ship.. ...
Nice tank bell, I also wouldn't recommend any additions. You are probably overcrowded already, as both pleco's and bala sharks grow LARGE. They alone will prove to overcrowd a 55 gal tank. My suggestion would be to trade in the pleco's for bristlenose pleco's which will do the same cleaning job, but produce MUCH less waste. Then you might be able to add some more small fish. Good Luck.
that's a beautiful tank.. i'd agree with susitna-flower on the plecos.. bristlenose plecos are much better for aquariums smaller than 55g.. zebra plecos are my favorite but very expensive.
http://www.planetcatfish.com/ is a great site for the many,many, MANY types of plecos out there and info on them all.
