iridescent shark

[CptSputnik098]

He looks amazing! Nice! :)

[SpadedJuggalo87]

I got two of them things only 6 inches a peice but all they do is run into the glass all day and night unless feeding.

[FunE4life]

Only reason it goes into a corner and lyes down... Bcoz it's dieing... Of neglecting, bullies, also these guys atleast need another mate to hang with...

NEVER PUT A SINGLE ID SHARK WITH BIGGER COMMUNITY FISH!

[Firebelliedkid]

Tell me if this is a good setup 2 7in Id sharks one 8in bala shark and a 6in pictus catfish

[TheinfamousJoker]

i have a problem. my id shark wont grow??? i bought him at 2inches and is now about 5inches in a 75 with goldfish and he wont grow?? i bought catfish half his size three months ago and they are now all the same size would you suggest aby thing? nice vid too

[moormandrm]

my shark got eaten as i know of by my bichir eel

[zachariahh3933]

how long did it take for him to get that big.. how big was he when you got him

[busyZignal]

is an id shark good in a 117 gallon tank when its a adult ??

[shinycharizard06]

@busyZignal no. you need an entire pond to keep these guys happy when they're full grown.

[kwtblack2]

ouch is that some injert in his nose ?

[doller1978]

How very nice of you to create a neon-natural environment for him. Ever consider the fact that he might...maybe...possibly... need some sort of darkness in his life since he is naturally a predator???

[goodboy676]

whatz on his mouth dude?

[sworddemon152]

@TheFishKeeper100 I wouldn't put it with your piranhas because your piranhas would eat it. And I wouldn't put it with the jack dempseys either. I have a 30 gallon tank which is about 60 litres and that would be fine for the iridescent shark. You could fit about 2 for a couple of months.

[stronglish]

@TheFishKeeper100 300 gallon for any Pangasius fish

[TCKfranco]

what size is your tank?

[peahuangy]

[idsharksrock]

[BartSymson]

[TheUncouthEMO1]

dude,where can i buy this kind of fish from?

[skaterg807]

@TheUncouthEMO1 pet store

[reubse2]

i have one about a week old, all it dose is stay in the top corner??????????? i have a bala,oscer,loch,barbs

[reneeberes]

hey

i just got a id shark too... he is swimming vertically - head up in the corner too. :(

did you find out your problem???

[goodboy676]

@reneeberes

hez sick dude

my rainbow shark died and it waz showing the same activity

[reneeberes]

@goodboy676

he's doing great now..maybe he needed time to get used to his new home

[reneeberes]

@goodboy676

he survived!!! i even have a video if you wanna see.

[retic257]

hey i got 1 today and all it does is just gets rly rly hyper then just lies in 1 corner of the tank what shuld i do?

[dan197dan197]

what did you feed him?

[SheSoTalented216]

Wow I was about to buy one of those today, but it was very little. They told me it would get to be about three feet...but I think i would end up being scared of it!

[Jostensmith]

they are NOT ment to be alone in a tank...they need atleast one friend in their with them...preferably another id shark..they lay at the bottom of the tank when they are exhausted, scared, or injured.....they also need a LOT of space to swim around..anyone of u who owns them knows they swim very fast and occasionaly ram themselves into the glass when spooked...keeping them alone in a tank is not only dumb but its cruel

[slashLesP]

Thanks for your concern but i dont think you read the description. And he's not with me anymore.

[slipknot555133]

meh i kind of concur..i think they just swim around fast because there happy...because when i change the water he gets uncomfortable for about three dats and just sits at the bottom then hell start doing all the stuff the other fish do even when hes not spooked..hll just randomly swim aroud the tank super fast..the reason they ram into the sides is because they cant see very well

[Jostensmith]

yeah theyre fucking blind as hell

[NexusBeing]

lol friend.

[pascalpasi1243]

nice .nice

[maxboya]

one they get big enough they start eating other fish

[Zero11270]

I have an iridescent shark and he is just itty bitty..... I thought they die of organ failure at a young age..... But this and many other videos makes me see different!

[eddiex009]

men you fish need a bigger tank, and look scared use a darken sand

[introd27]

I bough an Iridescent Shark Factoids two days ago and my black shark ate him. dame, that cost me $5

[MrMitchSmith]

silver arowana is good

[RonaldButlerJr]

i have a loach and a iredesent shark,can someone please tell me good tankmates for them? Also would a ghost knifefish be ok.???

[daviscanbefound]

ghost knife fish are a bad idea...esp if the id sharks are smaller than the knife fish.....found that out the hard way.....they get along great with mollys, rasboras, and furcatas so long as the id shark is introduced into the tank last

[RonaldButlerJr]

Thanks. I might get a couple mollies and swordtails. My iredesent shark also sits at the bottom of my tank unless I put food in.

[DUSTINJOLLEY123123]

i need some help my id shark wont eat and he keeps swimming fast and weird and running into the walls of the tank.

[wowraptor]

Mine does the same thing!!! But he likes it when it's night time he swims around just fine =/

[daviscanbefound]

id sharks, when they are young are very temperamental .....mine used to sit at the bottom of the tank and flop on his side and just float even.........if u approach the tank to quickly or make any movement thats quicker than he could predict, he would do that.....so i tried keeping the food further away doing everything a lil slower for the first 3-4 months and then they're aight.....hope that helps

[SuperAtlantis1]

how many gallons is this tank / aquariam?

[billnyethe1742]

I had one in a 20 gallon till it was 7'' then I got a 350 gallon with 2 of them one was 6'' and the first one was 12'' then the first one got to 2 feet long and the second one was 15" so I gave them away to a friend that had a 800 gallon tank...Don't buy them unless you can afford a lot!

[iPhOnDeHelper]

any 1 got any ideas im getting more fish i already got alot my fave ebjd but give me some ideas if u dont mind (:

[jlazure1]

id get a pictus cat if i were u there pretty sweet .

maybe some gouramis idk lol whatever ones tht really catch yer eye thts wat i do lol well i make sure thy can live in my tnk tho lol.

[Zero11270]

My gourami was the hardiest fish I have evr had. He lived a good 5-6 years.

[MrTeFalta]

u seriously need a bigger tank but nice fish by the way

[vipersupra99]

If you really want to know about this iredescent shark, it should be housed in a large pond or 1000 gallon tank because these monsters will get to 4 feet or even larger NO LIE!!

[jackkerr13]

he is right but it only get as big as the tank

[koen4497]

that is wayyy mellower than my iridescent

[Tomb611]

Oh God. Today i just bought a ID Shark its 3inches and i have a 36 gallon tank but the pet store said they will grow to 8 inches at the max ! looks like ill have to find him a new home in the next year or so ...

[gregt8]

8 inches lol times that by 3!!!!!!! he was lieing to get ur money

[shadowscion]

lol they can get huge man, really they shouldn't be in any aquarium, i have seen them over 2 feet long

[DylanBargetzi]

had 2 of them in 60 gallons

one was a male 10 inches and the other a female 24 inches

i had to get rid of them cuz they out grew my tank

the female would spazz an fly around the corners splashing water everywere

[fish111011]

how big is it

[westwide]

are those the same as proon sharks?

[slashLesP]

No, they are completely different. Paroon sharks are very aggresive.

[rhcpkid1975]

they are simalar looking but not the same, the ireddescent( Pangius Catfish) is a plant eater and semi skiddish fish depending on local of tank, the paroon is an agressive meat eater, if you look at the dorsal fin you'll see the diffrence, irridescent slopes back at the rear of the fin, paroon goes straight up

[antssanmateo]

@westwide i hate paroon sharks so bad fish

[jeagles13]

these sharks are really cool when there small but when they get big they get lazy and there colors arent as bright

[slashLesP]

Wel,l mine goes crazy when the light is on in the dark he swims so slowly.

[tmac5003]

how long did it take it to get this size?

[slashLesP]

2 years and 4 months.

[dhcranford08]

mines a foot

[everioVIC]

is it a meat eating shark as well cuz i just got one also and i want it to be dangerous

[slashLesP]

Sorry, I don't think they are. Mine is not, he doest not do any harm to any fish LOL. Maybe if he is starving or suffering from lack of food =( then he might attack.

[Eeqq1ownsyouall]

hey i have a question i just bought 2 iridescent sharks yesterday and i was wondering what do you feed yours

[slashLesP]

He really enjoy pleco food like the algae wafers any brand will do it. When he is really hungry he will eat brineshrimp you can find them at petsmart.

[Eeqq1ownsyouall]

k thanks.

[cod105ey]

blood worms are the best for em

[jonbird92]

[shetbag11]
