    Hello, i was wondering if anyone has any ideas about what kind of shark could be put into a 900 gal tank that will swim around, most of the sharks for that size are bottom swimmers, Thanks

    At one of my LFS they have a white tip reef shark in a 800gal i think, the shark is about 3 1/2 feet long... its been in there for a couple of years now since they ask 5 000$ for it. :eek:. I think a mature male will reach about 7 feet and females are a little smaller but im not sure will have to check that out.
