Thats a nice setup there well done your doing a great job ;)
 
Aweeeeeeeee, doncha just wanna snuggle her up with kisses and hugs??? :wub:
What did you name her? "did you already tell us and I forgot? LOL"
Oh man I bet your daughter is so happy to have her as a pet.
Watch your fingers, :eek: ,lol.
She's a beauty!


Wouldnt it be cool to have an inground pool indoors so you can have a HUGE saltwater set up? :eek: Or is that possible? :eek:, or am I just crazy?:eek:...........OMG so many possibilities!!!! :eek::eek::O:O:O
Yes, next project,making a mini ocean,:p. Buhahahhaa
 
Is he/she feeding yet. the one we had in the shop was quite difficult to feed but now hand feeds with no problem. beautifull fish. always wanted to keep a shark either bamboo or epaulet. not go room for a 6' tank though. good luck
 
O.K. Ill try to answer this 1. at a time,
then Ill find another pic for ya.
WHISPER, yes Ill post another pic.
KOSSY, I will tell her what you said, thank you.
CRIMSON, on the kiss- NO!, an as for fingers, YES keep them out of range, use a feeding STICK.
SRE2K3, YES SHE ate from the first day, not a problem, she inhaled anything that was put in front of her. her sence of smell is unbelieveable, aas soon as fod hit the water BAM ! she's out swimming searching for it.
GADZOBE, in the WILD they will get 3-4' most captive sharks like this UNDER PROPER CONDITION will get 3'.
MOUNTGUPPY, this one came from a wild pair, next season she will put the male /female together an go from there, usualy takes 3 years to be sexually mature, so they can live together for a while first.
that pic was 1st day. Ill get one at 5weeks old so you can see the growth,an change.
GOOD LUCK GOOD REEFIN :thumbs:

POINT OF INTEREST, she has been growing 1-1/2 per month she started out at 4-5" at berth, an is now 11-1/2" an a good 1-1/2 wide. next time I go over Ill shot another pic. here is where tank size comes into play. this fish at 12" in a 4' tank can only swim 3' not much space to swim ! so at 3' even in the 8x3x18 tank, she will some what confind, but still have room to turn around,when it comes to swimming. but they will be fine.
