Need info about saltwater shark and tank build
 
I want to get some informer about other people shark tank for black tip and other.

I want to build a shark tank and want to know how big the tank should be like how long and wide and where to get a shark or who might have one.
The shark tank is only going to be for small black tip. And when it get bigger I would like to sell it. To some one in Calgary.

And I would like to see your shark tank to get some idea and that

Hope to here from you

You're looking at at 2000 gallon tank. That's what they had at Island Pets and it looked small still for black tips which are constant swimmers, unlike bamboo and catsharks. The bigger the better. Think swimming pool size. Smaller black tips kept in smaller size tanks generally die from crashing into the sides or jumping out or just stress from being in too small an enclosure. Beautiful but probably one of the less suitable species for the aquarium unless its a public aquarium with tanks in the tens of thousands of gallons. I doubt anybody in Calgary is set up to keep a black tip adult or even sub-adult. They are also messy eaters so the filtration system would cost an arm & a leg. They fed their black tip sharks at Island Pets whole salmon.

Wait didn't I try this as a troll post before. But dolphins instead of sharks.

Buy a 16 foot + diameter swimming pool. Short of that.... Leave them in the ocean.

You could contact me through email
eli@fijireefrock.com
The one we are running now I believe it's roughly 14 foot diameter.will have a couple sharks in there.
There is a quick youtube on our channel showing the rock design.
