a lfs near me has a kiddie pool (about 200gal) with 4! nurse sharks ranging in size from 3.5 to 4 feet. the clerk took me downstairs to show me like it was the coolest thing ever, then i asked him if he'd like it if I kept him in my spare bedroom with 3 other *******s for the rest of his life. he gave me no response


he shouldnt have had a response .lol.

thats like you in a 1'l x 1'w x 6'h closet for your life, with some occasional squid falling through the ceiling. doesnt seem right to me.

Settle down there buddy. It's called a joke. :screwy::ROFL:
 
haha @ both your comments.. Most fish stores are flat out idiots, owners and employees..
 
I've seen much worse... at Petco the Pacu's only need a 29 gallon, ornate bichirs need at 29 gallon too, yet a sengal needs a 90 gallon tank? I guess they mixed the labels up?
 
Petco are idiots to, eveyone who tries to sale fish have no idea what they are doing, unless its a small store who specialize in something and make sure everyone is a fish enthusiast..

Yeah there's a lot of problems with the info on that site.

Such as
The Zebra Shark grow to a maximum length of 28.4 inches, and mature at approximately 24.0 inches.

Not true of true Zebra Sharks. That size would be closer to the Indonesian Bamboo shark which is sometimes called the Zebra Bamboo. But many sites sell them as Zebra Sharks.

But then most of there info on sharks is wrong, especially the minimum tank sizes
 
For that price, I'm with Ken... those aren't "Zebra sharks" like we think of the 8 footers. What we call "Zebra" (and what is in the pic as a pup) are hatched out at over 12" and would cost several thousand.

4" pups @ $140 means Indo Bamboo. And that is a RIP OFF. I've bought Indo Bamboo for less than $70 each.
