Description: The Sharknose has a gold/yellow spot on its head with blue stripes and sleek black body. This fish is hardy and can be housed in 10 gallons aquarium or larger. Rarely this fish will become aggressive towards other tankmates; however, they are territorial toward conspecifics unless a mated pair. They have been known to pick parasites off larger fish, but also need a variety of small frozen foods, small pellets, and even ROE/Arctipods/ Beta Brine.
