Hello,
   I need help with something. I bought a saltwater shark today. The
name of the shark that they had written on the fishtank was "Deamon
Shark" or something like that. Apparently that is not right. I called
up the store to find out the name of the fish so I can do some
research on it. I want to know how he behaves, what he eats, what he
likes and what he dosent like etc..... but I cant find this fish
anywhere.  I checked alot of different websites that sell saltwater
fish, but no one sells this peticular fish. the store told me he is a
sand shark, but when I look that up in google it, i get info on a
really large shark that is obviously not the one I bought. The shark
looks like the following. He is black (or dark gray) with a
yellowish/greenish stripe going through out the lenght of his body.
His body is long and thin with a kind of flat head. he kind of looks
like a missle.  He likes to stick
on the glass. and used the sticky part on top of his head to stick on
the glass and he even tried to stick on the side of onw of my other
larger fish like the Naso Tang. I thought that was odd. I am sorry
that i dont have the nane of the shark, but that is my question to
you. I need to know the name of this shark and also where i can do
some research on him so I can make sure that he will live a long and
healthy life. If you need I can email you a picture of him. I would
send it along with this email but I dont know where or how to attach a
picture. If you need one please feel free to ask me and let me know
where i can send it to and I will be haqppy to do so. I thank you in
advance for you help.
