	Amur sucker(tiger shark)
Rob1619 Fish Addict Posts: 763 Kudos: 619 Votes: 626 Registered: 01-Sep-2004	I was just wondering if it is possible to have 2 tiger sharks in a 74g or will it be to small tank for them? I have heard that they say that the tiger shark is very hardy fish aswell,is this true? Last edited by robby1619 at 21-Mar-2005 06:31 I know human beings and fish can co-exist peacefully.

Rob1619 Fish Addict Posts: 763 Kudos: 619 Votes: 626 Registered: 01-Sep-2004	yep thats true... I will wait some more weeks though..just to be sure the water is good enough for them. I will not buy the amur sucker,because i have bought a hoplo catfish instead. Robby I know human beings and fish can co-exist peacefully.

So_Very_Sneaky Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 3238 Kudos: 2272 Votes: 201 Registered: 10-Mar-2004	Actually that fish, also known as Hi Fin Chinese Banded Shark grows to be 30 inches and goes through 3 different stages in its life, in which it looks different every time. They are one of my favorite fish, but alas I know I could never keep one, they would really need about a 175g tank that is nice and long to be happy. They are also schooling fish as well, and would prefer to be in a large school. Lovely fish though Come Play Yahtzee With Me! http://games.atari.com Http://www.myleague.com/yahtgames

I assume they're fairly uncommon. Last edited by Cup_of_Lifenoodles at 01-Apr-2005 08:46
