Would you add this guy to your reef tank...

A baby bamboo shark.
Right now its in its own 10gallon with a damsel.
Its about 4" - 5" long and not long hatched.
I just got it to take some Squid...
Im wondering if it would be alright in my reef tank. It would be a lot more space, a managed environment and give the little guy more places to hide.
I have a Perc Clown, a rock beauty, a yellow tang and a few anenomys as well as correls (correls are about half way up the tank on rocks).
Right now, the Perc Clown is way bigger than the shark.
Think its safe for the moment?
Obviously, when the shark gets bigger, Ill move it into its own tank again...

the shark will eat whatever he can.
"Diet
The brownbanded bamboo shark is nocturnal, meaning it is active at night, and it hides in the reef some of the time but known to be out during the day, until night, when it comes out to feed. It eats small fish, crustaceans, and various other small sea animals. Bamboo sharks are small, sluggish bottom-feeders, and will not go after any large fish. They feed on invertebrates mostly. The whitespotted bamboo shark will eat crabs,shrimp and small fish, which it smashes before eating. They have small sharp teeth."

is it true that when you hatch baby sharks they usually dont make it to a year old?

besides your clean up crew getting eaten you have to look at the damage the shark is going to do as it swims amongst your corals, their skin is like sand paper, chances are wear and tear on your sand dwelling corals is going to be hard on them.

Mortality for sharks hatched sharks is high. Something like 50%.
I got 2, one refused to eat and has starved to death....
I dont have any corals in the bottom of the tank.
Im just after opinion right now.
