wow.. that was epic fail territory right there.
the only insult was at your stupidity..
say what you want... I'm not the guy starting a thread about hatching sharks in 10gallon tanks.. if you can't afford to actually keep one, don't.
Let's see this imaginary "125" or 12.5.

hes a nice looking cat shark, i hope he feeds for you, but as said to keep perfect water quality for this guy u should put him in at least a 20-30g, then if something goes wrong you have more time to fix it, but good luck with feeding him

Wait a second, are you going to put the shark with puffers, triggers and an angel? Have you done any research once so ever? Please give this shark to someone that can care for it properly.PLEASE!

Not just any Trigger, but a Blueline. One of the most aggressive fish in this hobby.

Your 125 is overstocked, your 220 will be overstocked. Your stocklist is all over the place and your angels and triggers will tear that shark apart.
Your blueline trigger alone will be 22+".
I have no problem with hatching a shark in a 10g and getting it to eat, but I do have serious issues with hatching a shark to a 10g tank, moving it to a 125 that is already overstocked with fish that will torchure it to death.
Bio is correct, give the shark to someone that knows what they are doing. Benthic sharks are peaceful and are very delicate.

Perhaps you could elaborate, the picture you show is of a 125 (which you said the shark is going into) with a large Emperor Angel, Porcupine puffer, and what appears to be a growing Blueline Trigger, these are 3 fish that belong nowhere near a Shark. We are just concerned about the shark.

Guys, I think some of the posts here have been unnecessaarily harsh. If draconis has a 125 and a 220, then I'd assume that he can move his fish around to make sure that the shark is only with appropriate tankmates. Whether or not his tanks are overstocked is another issue but we don't exactly know what he will be keeping in his 125 when he moves the shark over, or in the 220 eventually.

Draconis, good luck with this guy. I'd recommend keeping a couple of white shrimp in the tank so that the shark may get tempted to start feeding on those.
What are the dimensions of your 220? If it is the 72" x 24" base then you may have to make other arrangements in 4 years or so. Good luck.

Good luck with it. I had one a while back and got it to start eating with krill and a long set of tongs. I would have to stick it right in front of his face. It eventually started eating on its own. Again, good luck.

O.k. so please enlighten us... what's going to be the shark's tank mates in the 125? As KJR said, the picture of your 125 shows a puffer, trigger and an angel.

im a new member, and ive been blasted before for several different things, but, i figured out very very quickly that everyone was just trying to help, its just that people on here are extremely passionate about the hobby and about providing as good a home as possible for any and all fish, corals, and inverts that we in this hobby keep, so if you think its negativity, its people being highly concerned for the well being of the fish or coral or invert in question that is all

There is a fine line between being concerned, and just being a jerk.
