Why do Iridescent Sharks always keep licking the Aquarium sides?
Iridescent Sharks (Pangasius hypothalmus) are omnivorous so could well be eating whatever bits of algae are forming there. I do hope you did your homework and know that the baby fish you have will grow to over 4 feet long. To be kept successfully they should be kept in groups of no less than 5. These fish are grown in ponds in Asia as a major food fish.

The answer to this depends on your own circumstances.
If you're out of the water (in a boat, on a pier, etc.) you can use a projectile weapon such as a gun or harpoon, or even an electrical weapon such as a taser.
If you're fishing, reeling the shark in and keeping it out of the water will kill it in a matter of minutes.
If you're in the water, your options are far more limited, as this is the shark's home territory. You'd need a projectile or electrical weapon capable of operating underwater, as it's unlikely you'd be able to kick or punch the shark hard enough to deter its attack, much less kill it.
I have known several fishermen who carry pistols on their boats to shoot dolphins and sharks. If you are in the water as a swimmer, keep calm and slowly swim toward shore, calling for help if possible. As divers we are trained to go deeper if a shark should be heading your way and allow the animal to pass. Spear fishers know to leave their caught fish on a leader floating from a Downey or bleach bottle away from their bodies to not have to deal with the animals. Sharks have no bones and their bodies are surprisingly vulnerable. Dolphins know to ram them in their sides rupturing vital organs and killing the sharks quite effectively. Millions of sharks are killed every year and every specie on the planet is endangered. (reefannie)
What is the difference between a dolphin and a shark?
A shark is considered a fish. A dolphin is a mammal. While both may be considered aquatic with living in water, both are different in that respect. The mammals breathe air and produce milk for their offspring.
The tiger shark has few natural enemies except man. He may be cautious of a white shark, but normally large predators avoid confrontation.
