Hey guys I'm getting a 55 gallon tank and I was thinking of putting these fish in there
4 rainbow sharks
2 pink rainbow sharks
1 black ghost knife
2 honeycomb catfish
2 bristle nose plecos
2 black convicts
1 tire track eel

The convicts might breed, bgk will get too big as will the tt eel. I'm not sure about the sharks.
 
Only 1 shark per tank unless it is a whole lot bigger than a 55. The TT eel will get too big. And the black ghost knife maybe ok if it were the only fish in there. But even then a 55 is really too small for 1.

But, 1 shark, 2 convicts, 2 bristle nose plecos, and maybe the honeycomb cats might be OK. But I think the cats would be better off left out. They stay small, and maybe harassed by the shark and cons.
 
Just watch out for the breeding convicts. When you are buying them only get the ones with orange on their sides, those are females.
