Common name: Ground Sharks

Carcharhiniformes, commonly known as ground sharks, represent the largest order of sharks, comprising species like the well-known tiger shark and blue shark. They are characterized by the presence of nictitating membranes over the eyes, two dorsal fins, an anal fin, and five gill slits. While fascinating, most species are not suitable for home aquariums due to their size and ecological requirements. However, their biology and behavior are of great interest to marine enthusiasts and scientists alike.
