Blacktip reef shark

The Blacktip reef shark (Carcharhinus melanopterus) is characterized by its distinctive black tips on its fins, notably the first dorsal fin and caudal fin. This species is primarily found in the Indo-Pacific region, inhabiting shallow, tropical coral reefs. The shark has a slender body, a short, rounded snout, and is generally grey in color with a white underside. It is not commonly known in the aquarium hobby due to its size and the complexity of its care.
