shark care(updated!!)

DON'T get a nurse they'ell grow way bigger than even blacktips! otherwise i like it! what other fish are going to be in there(not sharks\rays)

 

He mentioned possibly having a school of powder blue tangs. Are you going to do that, bvb?

 

probably a school of powder blue tangs. and i was told nurse sharks would do fine in this tank? hmm.... well i dont know much of the other fish. some people say angels will do fine the panfish says theyll poke the sharks eyes out.... idk.

 

You need to get your facts straight bud. Black tips and bonnetheads are both in the gulf, I live here. I catch them all the time. I'm not sure where your getting your info, but you need to double check haha

 

yeah seano definitely doing that, unless there is a better species of tang to school? thoughts?

 

i was thinking this too, do you think smoothound black tips and bonnetheads will get along well in one tank?

 

Nurses do get big, although there not terribly aggressive. This goes back to the growth of sharks in captivity. What people read online doesn't necessarily apply in captivity. It will grow slower, and not to its maximum potential. I'm not sure if I would be taking advice from panfish though. haha

 

nurse sharks get 14 feet in the wild and i've seen 10 foot ones in captivity!try ONE angel from the pacific and if it goes well get more angels if it doesn't take the angel out!

 

To be honest, I don't know too much about smoothounds.. Your guess would be as good as mine.

 

i was thinking this, will an angelfish really eat a sharks eyes out? thats what he said. also i dont think he has much experience with shark tanks. hes very informative on average reef tanks tho. so i wont be hatin haha
