ok.. that sounds good... and about a different tank seperate from catfish... i have heard from many people that bala sharks and tinfoils (mostly balas) are good by themselves (not as good as in groups but i can oly do so much).. and would a 55 gallon 4ft long tank be good for one of each and some ...
