He would outgrow your house. The exhibit containing whale sharks in the Georgia Aquarium is one million gallons. Your house couldn't hold half that.
actually, the exhibit holding whale sharks at the georgia aquarium is six million gallons
and bottemfeeder, i to noticed the blood, more than likely the shark got an abrasion form the leash, but sharks are tough so i bet it will be fine:D
i wonder how much they were selling it for

well consider its size theres lots of predatory fish in the waters where they caught it and it was for sale yes before the media knew it

and regarding you're question for the price i bet it wasnt that expensive because
people from that province sell's em cheap the fisherman would've sold it for less than 200usd

I really dont think thats blood it would be more spread out and not be in a pool like that behind its tail ecspecially for the fact the tail appears o be moving.

Haha, I stand corrected. I vaguely remembered reading about a 800k gallon tank and a 1.2 mil gallon tank there
