i am looking for a shark for my 105 gal tank.. i am looking for a bamboo shark or a small species of shark that will tolerate being in that small of a tank.. my tank is bmore box shaped than rectangle so a small shark should be happy..
 
If you really want I shark, I'd recommend at least 150 gallons at the bare minimum. Also, check out http://www.liveaquaria.com - They have some good prices.
 
I suggested that this was a better forum than the intro one.
 
It does, I could have, but since he was fairly new here I thought that having him do it would help make him aware of which forums are best for which threads. Just moving it might not have done that'
I have never kept a shark ,I have known a couple of people who did. even bamboo and cat sharks need a lot of room and the #s that were suggested to me were that the tank should be at least 1 1/2 times as wide as the adult fish is long and 3 times as long so for a cat shark your looking at a minimum of 4'x10' and that is shaving it some.
 
A "Tiger Shark" is a deep water shark that grows to approximatly 10 feet long or larger. It needs at least 250,000 gallons at the bare minimum. No saltwater shark grows to the size of it's tank.
