That's exactly what I'm hoping he DOESN'T say. Not only is releasing animals back into the wild a very dangerous thing to do, it's HIGHLY illegal.

Cartman you can't take a preditory animal and raise it in captivity then release it back into the wild . they don't adjust back to the wild and they Will most likely die .

AW2 is very right
the bonnets are permant
the blacktips were wild caught but because they got used captivity they can't be realesed they are going to a shark research facility when they reach about 4 feet

My favorite shark is the red tail shark. I had one in my 10 gallon tank when I was little. He lived in a hole in a piece of coral rock. When my Mollies would come near, he would chase tham away, but never eat them. He never attacked me the whole time I had him either. I might build 5 shark ponds some day and get a whole bunch or red tailed sharks, maybe some Rainbows or Balas. They are sweet.

No, It's a red tail SHARK not catfish. It said so right there on the price tag when I bought him. He was $3.49 which is a pretty good deal. That is my favorite shark. I had one in my 10 gallon tank when I was little. He was awesome.
