Question about a size tank

[wolfgaur]

Hello, I am looking to making a shark tank and am looking at getting a leopard shark. So what size tank would I need to fit a full grown leopard shark?
I have posted here before about a 150 gallon tank, I don’t believe this tank is big enough, but I want to know for sure what I can get away with while not making the shark pressed for space.

Full grown leopards can get over 5ft long. You could get away with keeping an adult in a 20'x8'x3' tank although I wouldn't go any lower than that. 20'x8'x4' would be better.

a 150 gal is way 2 small you need a tank which can hold a lest several thousand gallons

As I suspected, I noticed you have a bamboo shark in a 180 gallon tank. Is that tank good enough for a full grown bamboo? Or would you need to sell them when they get bigger?

My 180 is big enough for one but not two. Later this year I'm having a custom 300 gallon made for them.

Ok, these are the species I would like to have in my tank, please if anyone has any experiences with these fish and would recommend against mixing them please post here and why.
1 Colored Parrotfish (Scarus sp.)
1 Red Flag Grouper (Cephalopholis urodeta)
1 Black Banded cat shark (Chiloscyllium punctatum)
All these animals come from the Indo-Pacific region and enjoy the same water quality (Meaning temp/ph etc...)
I was looking into a 180 gallon tank.
Thanks
