    Extra Info  No they aren't real sharks, they just swim like them and have fins like them, and they are totally harmless too all other fish except other Red-Tailed Sharks. Yes these fish can't stand the sight of each other and will fight to the death just like un-digital cousins. That is why they are very difficult to breed. I have only tried to breed them once and it didn't work out so well, I almost lost three of them. Though two did mate as soon as I put them in the tank, after that they started fighting. To get them ready to breed, first make small individual tanks for each shark (never put two or more together at first). Then use the water conditions and other conditions above until all of their health reaches 100 and stays there for a few days. (I forgot to do this and that is probably why I failed). At first I tried putting them all together in one tank, this failed. This time I paired them off and put each female with a slightly older male. In one tank, because the male almost killed the younger female (she was only a week younger), I put in my only female left which was 1795 while he was 1475. Two days later. . . NEW BABY SHARKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So I recommend that you pair them off rather than through them all together. My other pair have not lost any health points but have not mated either. In case you were wondering the tank size was 480 by 640.   Survival Ranges
