OVer the past few days I've noticed my African Dwarf Frog, Rock, was getting rather inactive. So I bought a new heater and installed it into my 10 gallon tank, and let my new shark Buddy in. He swam around, and being the humorous guy he is, started playing with the current of the filter. He's been doing this for THREE DAYS STRAIGHT. It's like, "Buddy! You are still swimming in circles... " He constantly swims and he swims LIKE A SHARK. He wiggles his tail and just, swims. I guess he just learned how to have fun in my tank for him. He's a great guy and loves to eat food that I give him. He will not eat food from anyone else in my house; my sister, my mom, my dad, etc. He is so cute Will post a video of him swimming.

A minature one at that. Are you talking a real Bull Shark? One of the most dangerous and highly aggressive sharks in the sea. They are so quick to anger they make a White Pointer look like a puppy.

I will post a picture later, my mom has the camera right now... I'll describe him for now. He is gray-black on the top of his body, and has a white underbelly. He also has whiskers like a catfish...

I would have to consult my fish books for which type. My memory for aqaurium fish is not as good as it once was since I have been out of them for so many years. Why it was labelled a Bull Shark well maybe a question for the store owner. Link to comment

I have no idea why but some shops/websites call them Bull Sharks. Seems a bit like calling a Budgie an Eagle... Link to comment

I have seen changes in plants over the years. A new hybrid is developed and floods the market but when it eventually dies down and sales decrease they do a rename or resurrect an old but obscure name. Link to comment
