Looking For Shark Suggestions???

[A&P]

We have a 100g freshwater tank and would like to get a few sharks. Looking for sharks that look "shark-like" instead of fishy. Any suggestions?

Erm, real sharks, ID, red tail, what kinda "sharks" are we talkin' about here? Because "shark" can mean any number of things.

Really none of the freshwater "sharks" look at all shark-like to me

A rainbow shark would be nice in your tank, And one of the only "sharks" that would never outgrow it.

I think some plecos look more like sharks than some of the fish labelled as freshwater sharks...but they typically stay on the bottom of the tank and aren't active swimmers.

...but i've never owned freshwater sharks, so, can't offer advice on them. But I recommend plecos in addition to what you get

just get a few columbian and/or pictus cats look as shark like as u can get in fw. plus they move often, kinda like a shark

Columbian are a brackish water species. They can be kept in fresh water when small but need to be accimilated to brackish as they grow. And then to full marine as full grown.

my friend has silver sharks and they look prety shark like to me

Imo, you shouldn't buy a fish for the sake of it looking like a shark...

bala sharks (might need bigger tank eventually though)
