Im trying to avoid over-populating the tank. Here is the roster: 8 Zebra Danios 4 Fancy Guppies 5 Bloodfin Tetras 2 Australian Rainbowfish 1 Rubber Pleco 2 Bala Sharks 1 Black Mollie Any recommendation? Too much/too few? Comments. Im new to the hobby but I really dig it! I love angelfish but my LFS talked me out of adding them because of their PH requirements and attitudes. sreiman 2008-08-07 Answer no. 1 http://forum.aqua-fish.net/?topic=55-gallon-tank#2 stocking list looks o.k apart from the bala sharks, they grow very large and need a lot of swimming space.I have kept lots of angelfish and never had any problems with them apart from eating some neons once. mickey 2008-08-11 Answer no. 2 http://forum.aqua-fish.net/?topic=55-gallon-tank#3 thanks mick-ive heard the same about the balas. i have a buddy w a 200 gallon tank that will take the balas if it becomes an issue. i ended up buying two angels and they are doing great. they are very cool. sreiman 2008-08-17 Answer no. 3 http://forum.aqua-fish.net/?topic=55-gallon-tank#4 glad you are getting on o.k. with the angels,are they eating out of your fingers yet mickey 2008-08-18
