Hmmm.......sounds like a decent setup, probably bamboos and coral cats, possibly some other kinds. If i were you though, id go more with rays...

Leopards get between 5 and 6 feet long, smoothounds get between 3 and 4 feet long. Unfortuantely with a 6 foot long by 5 feet wide tank you are only going to be able to keep the smaller cat sharks, bamboos, and/or horn sharks. I am not always sure why these sharks get such a bad rap. They may not have the 'JAWS' look but are every bit shark.

Ive never had an epaulette but this local fish store has two large males and their active most of the day. Shark boy when I added up the gallons I got 780 but i could be wrong.

Why don't you put a pair of bamboos on there and try to get a breeding pair.I would stay away from the active smoothhounds as even a grey smoothhound would not be happy in that tank at full grown.Bamboos are more adapted to tighter spaces and would find your tank more suitable then the active sharks.Just my $.02
