I have a few aquatic fish that have been swimming peacefully together for a few days.They include angelfish,parrot fish and a few other fish.Howver they have started fighting with each other and it’s within their own species…meaning..the angel fish fight together…WHY??????

should i put a neon tetra together with an angelfish?

Will a Silver Dollar and an Angelfish be good tankmates?

I have a silver-tipped shark in my 125 gal tank w/a number of other freshwater fish including: a rope fish, 4 angelfish, 6 giant danios, medium albino butterfly pleco, albino channel cat (for now), and a catfish that has only a Latin name syndondis…. multiplicatius.. I think (spelling wrong)? the silver-tipped shark is the smallest fish right now except the Latin catfish and the ropefish, but they usually hide out of reach and are not bothered by the silver-tipped. He is about 3 inches long. I use aquarium salt and the ph is 8.4 or more. Is he going to survive in freshwater, and if he won’t be able to live happily in a freshwater aquarium, at what size should I get take him to a pet shop; will they even take a large shark? I‘ve never seen large ones before in any pet shops. I really like him and don’t want to get rid of him if I don’t have to, but I can’t get a saltwater tank.
Here’s why I was prompted to ask this question.

Probably not – these prefer strong water current, so if the water isn’t moving as fast as they’d like, they move instead. They should also be kept in brackish water (at least as juveniles), them gradually moved up to saltwater as adults. And as the previous answer already said, they’re schooling when young. I’d be very cautious about what you’re keeping them with as well – they’re predatory and they’ll eat fish they can fit in their mouth. http://www.fishlore.com/profile-columbia…

Seymour Butts, it’s not a real shark, it’s in the catfish family i believe. they just look like sharks so that’s what they are called.

as in carnivores, omnivores, herbivores ,producers,scavengers, decomposers
