its takes years of research, tons of money, patience, and work. You have to be a mature, responsible adult to keep sharks. They are very different from anything else you could keep. i'm sure that some day you will appreciate the animals a little more. it is obvious that you have spent some time in you childhood life reading up, but its going to take a lot more. hey, i'm on your side here. keep up the good work, and someday, if you're still into it, you could keep a shark or two. good luck.

i've already done months of reaserch just because sharks are awesome fish. it's possible to put one in a normal swimming pools like mattej has. it saves a TON of money but might not be the most effecient

months of research isn't going to cut it. plus, if you're looking for ways to save money, sharks aren't a good hobby. honestly no offense is meant here, but what kind of concept of money can you possibly have?
are your parents into this stuff too?

jr2857,
I can see your only 12 and probably in 5th or 6th grade. IMO I really dont think that young of a kid should try sharks, wait untill you get more advance class(chemistry, biology, physics,ect). You aren't going to need months of research....your going to need YEARS! Money is the biggest problem. You are going to need to think about what size pool to buy, filtration, the sharks enviroment, foods, and the livestock. I can see you dont have a job and that your parents are giving you the money for your tank now, what are they going to do when you tell them you want a shark/stingray pond? They may get excited but wait until they find out how much it cost. Do you even have the room for a pond? Dont take it the wrong way but please use your common sense. There are tons of fish to choose from out there that are more cooler then sharks.

So whats that mean to me? Do you know that you will make it in the advance classes? I dont think schools are going to give you money to help with your lil fishies, they will however give you scholarships.

Blacktip, horn sharks, bamboo, banded, and even coral need years for researching up on.

Can you restate that again? Go so I'm sorry for calling you a little kid but please under stand what you are getting in to. No one is telling you that you cant get a shark, go get one if you want but remember sharks aren't play things....
