No idea what you're talking about. Catsharks and Bamboo sharks are occasionally available for sale, but none are suitable for tanks under 200 gallons when adult. Their tanks should have lots of open space to maximize swimming room. They also require a lot of flow (high oxygen levels) and their tanks must be overskimmed, since they eat meaty foods like whole smelts, squids, etc. and are very messy eaters. Not sure what your system is like but you basically need to build your setup around the shark's needs to successfully keep one long term.

Please do your research when picking anything for your tank. And if you're new at this, at least choose livestock that suits your experience level.

On that note...try out a snowflake eel.

Do you have a very tight and secure lid on your tank? If not, dont even think of an eel. It may be a day, or a year....but it will eventually find its way out.

Second that on the snowflake morays. One of the smaller and more beautiful eels. Extreme escape artists though and will even go down you overflow box/plumbing. This happened to me with a baby snowflake. And if you're new to sw, sharks are really for experienced sw aquarists with the knowledge and resources to do a proper shark tank.
