    My shark has grown 4 inches. Another 2 inches and he will be going in a larger tank.

    He is the coolest thing ever. What do you feed him? He doesn't try to eat the other fish?

    What size tank is he in right now and what size will you have to put him in when he grows the 2 inches? Very pretty picture.

    what type of shark is he? Have you ever had any issues with aggression? What are you going to do with him if he gets 6ft? Where do you have the tank set up now?

    Blacktip Reef shark. The tank is in the livingroom right now. I am building a 1000 gallon tank in the basement for him right now. He is not too aggressive because I keep him well fed. And yes it is a male.
