i am going to get a new tank. i was wondering how many lites or gallons u would need for one.
quick question would a 160 gallon tank be big enough or not?
 
Silver Sharks eventually need brackish then full marine conditions however so you'll need to gradually turn it into a marine tank.
 
Ya bala sharks are freshwater, blue dolphins get 10 inches so it would have to be one or the other im afraid.

Bala sharks should be kept in groups (3 min, 5 better) or else they will be very skittish and could jump or injure themselves. They are very social with each other and like to swim fast and play, so will require at least a 6 foot tank once they've reached maturity (around 12").
 
If you really want to keep them happy, then I'd say at LEAST 6 ft long, 2ft wide, and height doesn't matter as much, but I'd say 2 ft tall as well.
