    I recommend the great white shark to anyone who wants a shark tank, for the simple fact that if you keep a great white shark in your house no one will rob you (fill your house with water so your shark can swim freely)

    People should rethink when they want to Shark Tank, it's just too expensive, I recently went to the fair in our state of Arkansas in Fort Smith, and they had for nurse sharks in a 1000 gallon tank the largest of which was seven and a half feet long this really seem cruel to me because they seem to have no way to move around at all, and you know they don't get to go to a bigger tank anytime soon. Unless you truly have the room and the money for upkeep I suggest not buying a shark, or if you do please donate it to your local aquarium if you cannot afford to keep it anymore. I was in the situation several years ago where I own the reef shark I had a tag and release and it was killed the very next day.

  • @fishmansf4573

    I have a rainbow shark and Siamese algae eater which looks like a shark. Also I have a synodontis lucipinnis which looks a lot like sharks as well. Also you can keep freshwater stingrays if you want to keep a real shark in freshwater because stingrays are related to sharks.

    If you Really want to see sharks up close and personal I highly recommend you learn to dive and when you've got some experience behind you, go somewhere like Great Barrier Reef or some lovely places in the Caribbean. Find yourself a dive club that caters for tourists and they'll usually be able to take a group to go shark watching. Or do it my way, go and work/live in Oman and see lots of BIG sharks on most dives. This includes the Great White, Tiger and Bull sharks. Plus Black&White tips (watch them go hunting on a night dive, just keep out of there way) Lemon, Nurse to make the most likely! If you're really lucky the Whale Sharks pass through Omani waters, but so do Box Jelly Fish. So get yerself a decent "Stinger Suit" or you could end up in A&E , where I worked! Keep on bubbling! I only wish I could but due to health reasons I can only dream on! So, anyone with an interest in the Oceans and Seas, grab it while you can! Sorry for waffling but I really miss scuba diving!
