which stocking list for a 4000 gallon (shark) sounds better (25x6x3.5)ft. (lxwxh)
4 leopards
or 1 black tip and 3 bonnetheads
also tell me if you have any other good shark stocking ideas and whether those choices are overstocked thanks!!!!!!!!!!! this site is awesome!!!!!!!!!

Not enough room for any of those species, except for maybe 2 Bonnets...but only if it was an oval or round tank.

you really do have the wrong shaped tank for any of those fish I suugest doing some research and get more information on each species before concidering any of them.if your having a tank made I suggest using different dimentions 6 ft is not much room for a fish that gets 6 ft or even close to it.

i just found a new place to put a different tank. it's still a 4000gallon 12x8x6ft. would that be more sufficient? it's almost a square

you should look into a circular tank and no blacktip bonnets yes, but the edges will have to be half circles and how do you plan on getting bonnetheads if you can find away to transport them i can help you get them and if you must i can also get you blacktips, but you will have to handle the shipping and all

If this is pond than the height for it is outrageous( 6ft). This one pond has had blacktips lemons and alot of other shark in it ( not all at once) and it was about 10 inches deep. The demension were about 20 by 10 ft also.

i now planned something different. ok the is a rectangle 14x8x6 (lxwxh) and there will be half of a circle on each side. the total gallonage is 7500. i think that is a better plan. i know it costs a lot but if i get into a real high class at my school they will get it for me. they said "money doesn't matter if you get into that class"

go buy a 300 and get a bamboo or a epaulette
cause chances are this tank you plan on having is going to cost over 10k safe estimate
