Rainbow Shark
Rainbow sharks are a mildly aggressive community fish more often toward their own kind.
They will find their own territory in the aquarium and can occasionally be found to bully smaller fish.
With their unique black/blue sharp slim bodies and bright red fins Rainbow Sharks offer colour and uniqueness to any aquarium.
Rainbow Sharks grow to a maximum size of 15cm and are best to be suited to a
aquarium of 3 ft plus. They grow slowly but can be territorial as they
grow.
Being an omnivore, Rainbow Sharks like a varied diet ranging between live foods, plants, flakes and frozen foods.
Soft to medium water is best suited to them with PH levels of 6.8 – 7.4
You will often find them to the rear of the aquarium often hiding behind logs, rocks, caves & plants.
They are a lot livelier at night time and will often dart along the bottom of the aquarium.
