I am just starting a new tank of Shark fish, I have black fin sharks and Red tale sharks. I know they are rather agressive, so what other fish can safely live with them. I just dont want them eaten!
Please help :-)

Anything that is sleek and fast. I would suggest silver dollars or any type of cichlid. Cichlids are rather aggresive but slow, so they can hold their own against any other fish. They have a tendancy to take over the look of a tank, so if you are going for a shark tank I would suggest the silver dollars in sets of 3 or more.

Any type of tripical fish is fine (Freshwater). I had sharks for the longest time, and they chase each other, but no fish ie, because of the sharks.

Well, since sharks live on less aggressive fish, you are pretty limited. There isn't really anything that they won't eat. Sorry.

Oscars are pretty aggressive. The sharks probably won't bother them.

Throw in some stingrays and let the battle royale begin.
