The Shark is a Silver Shark, they grow up to arround 14 inches, and need to be keptin groups. At least 4. Your tank is way to small for the Shark so yes it will after go.

I think I saw one once...what have I done with that photo...(searching,searching...) Ah, here: http://www.ecologyasia.com/verts/brackish-...se-ricefish.htm
Anyhow, depends on what kind of shark it is. It all depends on your tank size. |

Jourdy288 Actually, I'd say these things need a lot more than 75g. Have you ever seen them in public aquariums? They're huge. Granted I've never kept them but I can say they need more than 75g of water. |
