Freshwater sharks can give your aquarium a bit of interest as these unusual looking fish
normally create a lot of motion by gliding back and forth in colorful schools. Prior to introducing any fish into the aquarium, it is smart to do a little research to make sure that your environment is ideal for the fish and to be sure your new fish is compatible with the old.

Below is some advice on freshwater aquarium sharks you might consider for your aquarium.

White Tip Shark Catfish

These fresh water aquarium sharks are sleek in body with a head like a catfish – kind of ugly if you ask me! The white tip shark catfish is a very mellow fish that consistently vacuum the bottom of the tank for food. White tip shark catfish can dwell in brackish, salt or fresh water. These sharks are best in groups and grow big so they should be kept in large sized tanks. The best climate for the white tip shark is between 78 and 82 degrees.

Rainbow Shark

If you want to keep these sharks you ought to settle for only 1 fish per aquarium, or put in more than 6 as they can get a bit cranky with each other in small numbers. Rainbow sharks need to have tubes to move in and out of. These light colored freshwater aquarium sharks have a raspberry – orange color on the fins and tail. Rainbow sharks are sturdy but rather aggressive to other sharks but will do well with other fish. These sharks can develop to 9″ and need to be housed in larger aquarium tanks with a water temp between 76 and 80.

Red Tail Shark

These sharks must have a pipe, tube or cave to be their happiest and can get as big as 5″. Like the rainbow shark, red tails should be kept alone or in schools of more than 6. The red tail shark has a gray body with a red tail and does not get along with sharks. The best water temp for the red tail shark is between 76 and 80 degrees.

Bala Shark

Bala sharks are even tempered and hyper. Balas require a water temperature between 78 and 82 degrees. These sharks will do best in a sizeable fish tank with an external power filter. These sharks are silver in color with black tipped fins and tail. Including numerous Bala sharks to your tank will give you a vivid group of fish gracefully swimming in your tank.

Is it normal for my aquarium filter to be dirty so fast?

I have a 10 Gallon tank with 4 small ryukin goldfish and one
Plecostomus catfish. Tank has gravel, two artificial plants and an external hang-on filter. The filter is good for 10-20g tanks. I bought and installed it last Friday and I checked the filter cartridge yesterday to see that its already black. Is this normal? I did take it out and rinse it off but want to know if it should be this black after only a week.
Now that Ive learned that my tank is too small for these fish, what would be good fish to keep in a 10 gallon tank?

gray cat is right… do you preform weekly water changes? if not, just take a sample of your water to a pet store to get tested and see what you’re doing to your fish. you’re WAY over stocked. that tank would be completely stocked with ONE ryukin and nothing else.

ryukins get 6″ to 8″ (yes, they’re one of the smaller fancies in length, but they make up for it in height). they produce a TON of waste just like any other goldfish. you need at LEAST 10gallons PER goldfish.

plecos get over 18″ and also produce a ton of waste, you need at least a 50gallon tank for one of these.

please rehome or return your fish, at most keep one of them. you’re killing them if you keep things the way they are now. once you’ve gotten a sample of your water set aside, do a 30% water change. I’d suggest another 30% water change tomorrow. and then 10% water changes every day until you find a new place for 4 of the goldfish and the pleco.

and next time, do research BEFORE you get ANY living thing.

——-

sent you the list of good fish, be sure to do some research on them first! also, the nitrogen cycle is a good thing to look up
