Atlantic Salmon
- Thread starter SG130
- Start date
Considering that their home range is within the northern limits of the northern hemisphere, I do not think they will thrive in tropical temperatures. They are also anadromous so you would need to find a young specimen if you wanted to keep it in freshwater. In terms of coexisting with other fish, salmon are a predatory species and would likely prey on smaller tankmates.
thats alright,i guess.i also was planning on getting it for saltwater,but thanks for informing me on that.Also would they be able to have any other tankmates,ill do some research,but help would be very appreciated.
..GOOD LUCK.

They don't need to be kept in saltwater, there are landlocked populations as well that live their entire life in fresh.
Rearing Atlantic salmon won't be anything except difficult, I suggest researching this heavily. Have you figured out how you're going to get ahold of some?
yeah,there is a fish farm that sells salmon,and i found a good amount of them.also thats good news that they can live in freshwater their whole lives.i didnt know that.but can they be kept in saltwater?
