sweeet! my question to you is: where are the pics?!
okay i have no personal experience with sharks but from what i hear, they need a large tank. like 400 gallons or something. Some never learn to eat frozen food and must survive on live food. it's a good sign it ate krill though. try feeding some more in a 2-3 of days. they do NOT need to be fed daily. at most three times a week, but it seems twice a week may work better. again this isn't my advise, just what ive picked up along the way.

ok just for you justin, i took some pics.... what is it about fish that just wont stay still when they are getting their pics taken????
Scuse the scratches on the screen.... but its an acrylic 180 and i have not gotten round to buffeting the scratches out yet and its only the bottom part as the previous owner had large stones in there..... Last edited by Ticketyboo; 04-14-2007 at 04:28 PM.

niiiiiice. you've got quite the beaut there. 180 is going to be quite small for it. You will very likely want to start looking for a large upgrade.

justin justin justin justin ...... this is part of my cunning plan.......
we started off with a 72 gallon for mhy wife........ then i had my predators only in a 50 gallon when they were small.... then i bought the 180 gallon as they grew a little larger... only to tell my wife.... honey..... look!!!! we need a bigger tank as the shark is getting bigger!!!!!! in which she will only agree as its such a lovelly fish and she will fall in love with it in months to come, so she wont have any hesitation into allowing me to get a larger tank........ tactics dear justin... tactics..... Hey when can i see the mantis you got from hidden reef???

hahaha man you got this ALL planned out eh? lol well done, well done.
well i got final exams until the 18th, so not until after then... until then ill be scrambling realising how screwed i am. for now Im listening to the hockey game ans well... procrastinating. it's what i do best! after that though, come on over any time! Ill be moving trogdor to an 8gal biocube which will become a mantis reef tank over time. the 60gal will probably become a coldwater tank in the somewhat more distant future but will for the moment be a FOWLR. hmmm... maybe ill get a small volitan from JL and get a 100gal when it grows... muahaha...

I hope you have a huge tank for it. Would recommend at least a 200g with overskimming since these are predators.
In the 80s, I had a smooth horn shark that I taught to eat out of my hands. I trained it to eat squids & smelts, and it grew from 8" to about 18" before I sold it to someone with a much larger custom tank than my 110g (which was the largest regular tank available at the time). Good luck with it. Anthony
