The tidal effects exerted by the central part of a galaxy on a galactic cloud orbiting at a distance d from the center are examined in the presence of the gravitational effect of the galactic halo and of galactic rotation. Rotation increases somewhat the Roche limit outside which equilibrium exists. Nevertheless, the halo significantly reduces the tidal effects, especially so if the galactic concentration is low.
