Hi I wanted to know if i could put these fish in the same tank without any probelems and what size tank I needed




Whatever works Fire eel
" " Dragon goby
" " Tire track eel
" " Zig zag yellow tail eel
" " Black kuhuli loach
" " Gold dojo loach
" " Horse face loach
" " Any Bichir
" " Peacock eel
" " Zebra spiny eel
" " Any other spiny eels





THANKS :D :D :D :D :D :D :) :) :) :) :) :)
 
First problem is the Dragon Goby is brackish. Aside from that I don't see a problem except for maybe the loach's becoming lunch once the larger eels get big enough. You would need a tank with a very large footprint. Minimum 6x2 I'd say.
 
goby needs brakish - salt.

the kuhli would be lunch.

i know how to turn a brackish fish into a freshwater fish
And how do you plan to do that? Im hoping you don't become like that guy on youtube who keeps his sharks in freshwater :screwy::(
 
you take a dixie cup and pour it in the bag then let it sit for half an hour then repeat about 3 more times it doesnt totally turn them into a freshwater fish it just lets them live in freshwater

mollies are brackish but you can keep them in fresh
Just because you can keep them in fresh doesn't mean they should be kept in fresh.it it not in the fishes best interest and will lead to an early death. fish don't always show symptoms. and simply pouring cups of freshwater in the bag still doesn't make a difference,it just gets them acclimated to the water temp. as i said,it will lead to an early death.I'm not trying to start an argument,just helping out.It really depends one the fishes best interest too,not yours.
