My LFS has a nurse shark. they have loads of personality. When I was at the O street Aquarium, the nurse shark wouldnt leave me alone. It just followed me from his/her tank as I walked around the store! Corngrats on your new fish Now you can hang people over your tank on the first of the month that havnt paid up shure beats breaking legs

Thank you! hahaha! Great idea!

I'm not even thinking about that right now. I will think about that when necessary. I'm just enjoying them for now.

You're right... now isn't the time to be thinking about it.

Before you bought them was the time to think about it and decide against buying them as there is no possible way you can ever care for the fish at adult size and there is every chance you will either kill it or permanently damage it's health by keeping it.

Incredibly irresponsible to buy them, especially as you claim to be "in the trade".

That's your opinion...I'm a breeder and I think I'd know how to care for them in the future while enjoying them at the moment. I have experiance so please take your drama starting mouth elsewhere. Get out of my board.

Here we go again.

Aqua. You say you've worked in a fish shop for 10 years. I totally believe you and you are one of the employees described in my post in the cloudy water thread, that don't care and keep 30 fish in a 14 x 10 x 10 tank linked to a disease ridden central filtration smile and standing there with a smile welcoming the unsuspecting public.

First of all, you knew how big the fish gets and you say about future care 'I'll think about that when I get to it. probably you could throw it back into the see, because I understand (from research) that the nursing shark poopulation around Australia is rapidly diminishing (Not sarcastic this is true)

Secondly, there are reports of the Nursing Shark reaching 30 fett, which although I would assume is either down to misidentification, or exaggeration. And to the basking shark person from earlier. I understand it is the second largest fish in the world and can get to 10m although this is a MAX size and is not really that likely should you buy one for an aquarium.

You can't keep saying 'who asked you' and 'Get out of my board'. This is a forum. None of us own it. It is meant for the use of Fish lovers and enthusiasts, not fish desecrators like you, and it is your opinions and attitude that draw decent people to berate you in 'your board'.

If you continue to post in this vain you'll need to get used to others replying in a manner you aren't too happy with.

All in all you are never going to get a tank large enough for that fish and, it should either be kept in a public Aquarium or in the Sea. (I say this but I don't believe you have one)

If you do have them and care about fish read this:

and then take them to the Melbourne Aquarium, and apologise for taking another endangered species and housing him in too small aquarium.

first of all, this isnt your board. second, @ombomb is right, and you telling people to get out doesnt make it better. just because you own the fish, it doesnt mean you can take their life away slowly, but i doubt you have this fish anyways so let your imagination run wild. oh yeah, and keep it in your head, not on this forum

First of all I don't appreciate some of your comments. Sometimes it's best to keep some things to yourself. I hate people who instagate and start drama. Think what you want just don't put it on my board. I won't go any deeper into this with you. With that said, remove yourself from here. Thank you.

haha, jealousy, if you get your hands on a barracuda, then ill be jealous.

 

[AquaDreams]

I TRIED TO SHARE THIS WITH YOU GUYS AND YOU ARE JUST NEGATIVE AND RUDE. THIS IS MY LAST POST REGUARDING THIS BECAUSE THIS IS NON SENSE. SO TYPE AWAY IF YOU WANT. YOUR NOT WASTING MY TIME.

 

[Dorkhedeos]

Its not jealousy at all. Its caring about fish. I don't have an ocean at the right temp in my garden, so I don't buy big sharks.

and I don't buy animals that are endangered in the wild.

I bought 2 common plecs once that were mislabelled and knowing that they would outgrow my 29G I got them rehomed. I didn't think I'll wait till they get bigger and then think about what to do.

And as stated this is a forum nothing is yours and nothing is mine. It might annoy you that people aren't posting. 'They're beautiful well done in each post' but you have to accept that anyone can reply because it it a forum.

If you don't want to receive negative replies about your exploitation of teh fish population, find a forum that is for fish haters, not lovers.

I honestly thought you(aquadreams) would have been banned by now.

 

[SuperColey1]

Aquadreams. I told you not to pm me again and you have so I have reported you. If you can't take advice or opinion and are so narrow minded on subjects the go and play with yourself and your tortured fish on your own, and stop asking for advice, or giving bad advice, and just generally showing how cruel you can be.

 

[Dorkhedeos]

oooh, somebody likes you supercoley1
