Clowns get close to 4" long...not sure what size "large" is. Irridescent sharks Pangasius hypophthalmus are NOT tank fish. They get way too big for any home aquaria (unless of course you have a spare 500 gallon tank) Not sure I'd keep the angel with the stock you have it with. I'm sure someone else can fill in the gaps. ^_^ [hr width='40%']"There’s an emptiness inside her. And she’d do anything to fill it in. And though it’s red blood bleeding from her now. It's more like cold blue ice in her heart. She feels like kicking out all the windows. And setting fire to this life."

The 20 gallon is probababally very likely to have aggressive disputes between the gouramis, and if your kribs decide to breed everything in your tank will be killed. The 75 isn't overstocked but you have the wrong size fish in there they are all going to overgrow a 4 foot tank other then the silverdollars and im not familiar with the suncats unless they are named as something else.

littlemousling Conchiform Posts: 5230 Registered: 23-Aug-2003	You "don't believe" in schooling fish? Er - honestly now, why keep fish at all if you don't keep them in a way that allows them to feel safe? ID shark: I'm with the others - all of those tanks are severely overstocked.

Azrael_Darkness Fish Addict Posts: 547 Kudos: 420 Votes: 8 Registered: 26-Oct-2004	Those pangasias really turn into ugly buggers lol But yes the only reason your ghost knife was only a foot is because it was most likely stunted due to tank size...ghost knife can generally almost hit 2 feet if kept and fed properly. Which is the main reason i have not had a ghost knife yet, they are awsome fish but i don't have the proper setup for them right now.
