Need to know about a shark

Hello! I'm new at this so please bare with me ;) .
I am getting my husband a 30 gal tank tomorrow. I know that we have to wait at least a month before we put anything in it. Now for my question.... He wants a shark egg. I don't know the name of the shark. I have a pic but I don't know how to get it on here. The shark is white with black stripes. Any info would be great!!!!!

a 30 gallon tank most likely will not be able to hold a shark for any great period of time...maybe a month or two or three. You might want to take this post to the aggressive forum. I'm guessing...depending on what type of shark it is, u will need more like a 300 gallon tank if not more to keep a shark in.

the egg would be fine in a 30 gallon, but i would have the shark in a 200minimum(depending on the exact species) in a month or 2
 
Thanks Eveyone for the info...Now another question....Does anyone know if the egg sold here is that type of shark?.... We are planing to get a bigger tank after it hatches.....Thanks so much!! :)
