The second one is a pic of one in the huge tank, I believe it is like 2000gallons. They move the sharks around alot. They usually have two in that tank and like 4 stingrays. They have some adult leopards that are like 3ft and some nurse sharks on the bottom of the huge tank. They know what they are doing, they have like 5 50 gallon tanks. Its a neat little aquarium.

2000 still won't be enough for a full grown leopard let alone a full grown nurse. i hope they know what they're doing. also moving fish around alot causes alot of stress. alot means weekly, monthly DAILY :scared: or something else. being in a new home in such a short time will cause alot of stress.

those sharks are definately very cool! and the Nurse sharks could very easily survive in a 2000 gallon tank and even be happy.. they are very big sharks around 14 feet i believe but they could be happy in a 2000 with no problem!

it grow 14ft!!!!!!!!! wetwebmedia says tens of thousands of gallons. 2000 just isn't gonna cut it . it could be in there temporarily though. requim's 2700 gallon is already 14ft in length. even if they are non-active sharks they do still need big tanks.
