They grow very large, and are shoaling fish. I do not recommend that you buy one/any. It is sad how commonly available these guys are, considering that very few people have tanks big enough to house iridescent sharks.

They look nothing at all like the babys as you can see. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v359/SneakyPete79/fullgrownirridescentshark.jpg Come Play Yahtzee With Me! http://games.atari.com Http://www.myleague.com/yahtgames
