Question

Can a bala shark live with a balloon mollie?

Answer 1

Besides the fact Mollies do better with salt in the tank...A Bala Shark can live with a Balloon Mollie.

But you need to have at least 3 Bala Sharks and a tank that is at minimum 75 Gallons to 100 Gallons for these fish get about 18 inches long and like to school.  As these fish get bigger, as they are peaceful tank mates...they will now and again eat anything that can fit in their mouths...which includes small fish...like neons, etc.  But the Balloon Mollie should be big enough not to fit...for now at least.  That's mostly with any fish that is bigger...anything that can fit in their mouths is game...not always likely, but fair game just the same.

Best of Luck!

Answer 2

if the mollie is a full grown mollie it will be fine otherwise if it is too small or the bala shark is too much bigger then the bala shark could eat the mollie!
