Young Rainbow Shark

A video of my Ruby / Rainbow Shark in my tropical tank. This shark is approx 1 year old and is kept in my Fluval Roma 125 litre tank. The tank is filtered by a Fluval U3 internal filter, and heated using a standard Fluval heater. This tank is currently quite heavily planted, and contains a few ornaments. Other fish in the tank include Barbs, Gouramis, Loaches and a large Bristlenose Plec.

@EPIKreligion To be honest with you, you should only ever have 1 shark per tank. Sharks are incredibly territorial, which is why one of them is hogging the cave. The only way to resolve your issue is to create more areas that the sharks can call their own, or get rid of 3 of them, and just keep one.

Nice tank man how big is ur tank I have a rainbow shark he killed all my platys ;p he let my apollo shark live..aw

[OnlineFishTank]

@500bmw1 Aww bless! My tank is 125 litres. He's been alright really, he sorts out the other bullys in the tank such as the spanner barbs. I'm pretty sure most of my other, less agressive fish would be dead without him :)

My shark looks like thAt but enjoys bloodworms from my hand

And is very very timid like he is afraid of trumpet snails and small places it made me smile;)

Nice Rainbow Shark, I used to have 2 blacks ones but they died when I was moving :( Now i have a white one. His kinda mean and kicks the other fish out of behind the rocks, but he can be nice sometimes too. I just started posting videos of my tank check him out, I had him for a little more than a year, can't wait until he gets bigger. Maybe ill get another one when I get my Bigger tank.

Cool Rainbow Shark, stop by and take a look at mine. I have two, one is an Albino Rainbow Shark. I also have three Red-Tail Black Sharks in my tank too. There are actually several different species in my tank. Come on by an look at some of my posted videos, some pretty interesting items to be seen.

@Reconciliasion They may vary in colour over time, could be a factor of age, what environment its in such as the water temperature, I recommend 24-25ºC. Could also have something to do with diet, try and vary it as much as possible. Feeding bloodworms will give an improvement in colour of all of your fish. As for the Angelfish, he should get along OK with them, as long as you only have one shark. Thanks for the question, please rate the video & subscribe. Chris
