Rainbow Shark Black

Juvenile young stock. The Black Rainbow Shark (Epalzeorhynchos frenatum var.) is a sleek and striking aquarium fish, known for its jet-black body contrasted by vibrant red-orange fins that develop as they grow. Semi-aggressive and territorial, especially as it matures, it is best kept in spacious aquariums with hiding spots and robust tankmates. Active and hardy, this variety of Rainbow Shark adds bold color and personality to community setups with ample swimming space.

Fish Size Guide:

The 'Maximum Size' outlined below is the length this fish can reach as a full grown adult. For the actual size please use the select menu above.

Discus.ae prefers younger stock for their better ability to adapt to new water parameters and higher tolerance against transport. On rare occasions you may receive larger specimens when small fish are unavailable, however the smallest should be expected unless the size is noted as "Large" or "Adult".
