My cousin has Bala Sharks coming out the wazoo and was wondering if I wanted one. My question is, is my aquarium suitable for one or two. It's a 10 gallon hexagonal and 13-14" across. I've heard of them jumping and have about a 2" by 1" gap by filter. It contains one Algae Eater, two Pristilla tetra's, and two lemon tetra's. I'd love your advice on this.

Hi Sterlic, Balas get about 12 inches when full grown and are actually schooling fish. They're really not good for a 10 gallon aquarium.
