I had a lady donate some fish to our store today.

I decided to take home a fully grown rainbow shark (4.5'') and a bala shark of the same size.

The bala is 5 years old, and hasnt grown in a long time. Seems healthy, no defomities etc.

I cant for the life of me remember the tank size it was in, but it was big enough for a black shark to reach 9''.

Is the bala stunted? Will it likely grow in a decent sized tank (120g)

I actually like it at this size :headbang2
