    They are cool but I have my reservations about anything under 250+ gallon for sharks. I mean you are looking at the smallest of sharks but they still can reach between 3 and 4'.

    Not being negative to you hitman just my opinion.

    55 to 180 is a big step. I just done it. Not with sharks though. I'm thinking you'll need a BIG Skimmer for them, which probably won't fit under a stand too well. Will the setup have it's own pump room, or can it all go in your basement?
