This is an awesome scavenger for any semi-aggressive tank. The Ghost Shark has an awesome deep black body, with white fins that pop with the contrast. Primarily an algae grazer, Ghost Sharks prefer a little bit of veggies in their diet, as well as small crustaceans that would inhabit the algae in the wild. These guys are very territorial, so we only recommend one per tank. Be careful as they grow, as they can get more aggressive, especially come feeding time.
