How Big Of A Tank Should I Get

[wildechild_01]

Ok so my husband was at the LFS and saw some Bala Sharks, decided they looked cool and brough 2 smallish ones home, only about 2-3inches long right now. So now the 31 gallon tank has
5 tiger Barbs
4 Polka dot Loaches
2 Small Bala Sharks,

Obviously with the adult size of the Bala's a new tank is going to be needed just wondering what peole recommend for a tank size to keep all of these in.. we are moving in December and will have a lot more room for a much larger fishtank, i figure since eveything is quite small right now (barbs are also small still) eveyone should be fine till we move and i can cycle the new tank.

Thanks.

For bala sharks in the long run you would need a minimum of 6ft x 2ft x 2ft tank, preferably an 8ft if you had the money / space.

Also bala's should be kept in groups of 6+ but I wouldn't recommend adding anymore until you have a large enough tank.
