Disapearing Tetras

[sevenup]

Which fish would eat Tetras? Mollies or a Silver Shark

 

[WILDER]

I would go with the silver shark.

 

[sevenup]

Thanks, it's just the Mollie seems a bit fatter and will not leave the other fish alone

 

[WILDER]

How big is the tank, and what fish do you keep and how many.

 

[sevenup]

100Ltrs, 1 silver Shark, 2 male guppies, 3 orange Tetra's, 2 small bottom feeders, 1 fast growing Mollie, 4 (at the moment Tetra's)

 

[WILDER]

That's a 20gal then, it's not one of those big sharlks is it, as i'm not familar with that one you have, how big does it grow, apart from that everything seems fine.

Your tank isn't big enough and they like to be kept in 3, that's probably why your neons are missing.

 

[sevenup]

No its only a small Shark, they all had green lights when we bought them, it just seems that the Mollie is quite aggressive

 

[WILDER]

It might be small now but it can't really be kept on it's own, and the tank won't be big enough so it will get aggressive and pick the other fish off, have you seen the link.

 

[sevenup]

Yeah, thanks very much for your help we will keep an eye on it. Will have to speak to the shop we got it from.

 

[WILDER]

Here is a link for you as they had a bala shark in that link with the silver shark, this is how big the tanks should be, so you get an idea what you have.
