I have a 125 gal. brackish tank im a little worried about. Nothing is wrong for say, but just looking ahead i guess. It has
4 silver scats about 3-4"
3 white tip sharks 5-6"
1 F.W. snowflake eel 12-15"
I keep the SG at 1.010-1.015
Will these all be able to live there full life in these conditions? I wont be able to affard to go full marine with this tank. thanks
 
The sharks will outgrow the tank, the eel probably will too if it doesn't die prematurely.
 
ok ok, its a 6'x21"x18" wide tank. The sharks should (max)out at 12" and the eel no biger the 30"(max)
ALL i was needing to know is would these fish need to be full salt as they get older or could they stay brackish..
thanks for the help

If those are silver sharks they get much bigger than 12" and require saltwater. I am not a brackish expert but I don't know of any brackish sharks that are smaller.
