Rainbow Shark 4-5cm

Rainbow Sharks are known by many different names including Ruby and Red Finned Sharks. These are a beautiful fish with their lovely red bodies and striking fins. Like other similar sharks, they are loners and are intolerant of their own and related species. Mostly peaceful, but territorial, they can be aggressive to other fish that occupy the same areas in the tank. This includes loach species and most cichlids. Keep in an aquarium at least 80cm (70L) long, preferably larger as these fish will grow to around 12cm long. Rainbow Sharks can be kept with medium and large community fish, but it would be best if they are the last fish to be introduced.
