    Wow they are very neat! I thought they were red-tailed sharks at first, we have them at our pet stores alot, they are just all black-bodied sharks with red fins.

    But yours are very neat looking!

    Thanks all. I wish I could get clearer pics. One is light grey, the other is dark, both have a black stripe on the eye and a black spot on the tail. And since they are males, they're anal fin is outlined in black.

    Hey I was just wondering...I have had a lot of Rainbow Sharks, but how did you tell if they were males or not?

    The anal fin on the male has a black stripe along the back, or sometimes is completely outlined in black. In females that fin is completely red.

    Thanks chocolatepuppy.
    (I stopped in at the dollar store yesterday and couldn't get past the little dog statues. All they had were retrievers and dalmatians, not my favorites by any means but I couldn't leave them there, could I?)
