$7.99

The Red Tail Shark is a popular freshwater fish species that is native to Thailand. It is known for its striking appearance, with a dark black body and bright red tail fin. They are active and lively fish, making them a favorite among aquarium enthusiasts. To care for a Red Tail Shark, it's important to provide them with a suitable tank environment. They prefer a well-planted tank with plenty of hiding spots and open swimming space. The tank should be at least 55 gallons in size.

These fish can be territorial and aggressive towards other fish species, particularly those with a similar body shape or coloration. It's best to keep them in a single-species tank or with other non-aggressive fish species. Providing plenty of hiding spots and decorations can help reduce aggression. Regular water changes and maintenance of the aquarium are essential for keeping your Red Tail Shark healthy and happy. With proper care, these fish can live for up to 5-8 years in captivity.
