Very fast. Even with light feeding, they grow very fast.

You need a bare minimum of a 180 gallon tank for any shark too, Lion. Thats only for the smallest of sharks and its prefered to have a good bit more. Heck my LFS is kinda unscrupulous but even they wont sell you a shark unless you have a 180 or higher tank.

Yes they do grow fast and they also lose most of their striped coloration. They are cool sharks but don't expect it to do the typical "jaws" acts that people think of when they consider sharks.
