Hey you didn't wait!
I've been away for the internet to move to my new place. :(


Nice looking group. I just shot you a PM back about the next addition.
 
Wow, very awesome, very impressive. Do you have a viewing window or are the photos with an underwater camera?

how many gallons is that??

18' round x 4' tall comes to ~ 7500 gallons
his next rendition will be ~ 17000 gallons if he keeps the same depth
and the last one will be the largest setup on mfk if he finishes it. ~ 112k if he does a depth of 6' 75k if he keeps 4'

either way arapaimag's gonna have a run for his money.
 
Ok - first off the "Mini Bull's" real name is actually the Finetooth Shark (Carcharhinus isodon).

Second - for the record my current avatar is of the Atlantic Sharpnose Shark. Which is why I didn't guess that - the look and fin morphology of the Atlantic Sharpnose is quite different from the Blacktip, Blacknose & Finetooth.

Third - the Blacktip shark (Carcharhinus limbatus) is found in the tropical and sub-tropical parts of the Atlantic, the Pacific and the Indian Oceans. So it's a worldwide species - not just the Atlantic. Also the Blacktip is larger (max size is about 33% larger - more than 8 ft) and also has a very different temperment than the Blacktip Reef does.

The "mini bull" comment was a joke...
