leopard shark tank

PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION BEFORE YOU ASK HOW or WHY?
***PLEASE DONT FORGET TO RATE***
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!



PLEASE READ-------------------
These sharks are donated from people who have been holding them illegally. My tank is just a stopping station for the sharks that are 10-12" to cure the animals of any diseases, illnesses, injury or parasites that they may have contracted during home aquarium captivity or since or during capture. The sharks are moved from the tanks you see here to larger tanks and then are SLOWLY acclimated back to their natural temps. This is the reason why you see them in my sub-tropical temperature tank. These sharks stay with me no longer then 1-3 months each depending on their conditions. From here they are moved to larger systems and acclimated back to their natural water temps. Since the animal has been exposed to foreign tropical diseases not found in their native Pacific homes sadly these beautiful animals can never be returned to the Pacific and they are kept in public aquariums from around the world. That is the reason you see my tanks holding 5-6 leopards to maybe just 1-2 at a time.

Thank you for watching.
I would love to answer any questions that you may have.

This tank was only a temp tank for everyone that was wondering... moved everything over to a 600 gallon tank at this time. Will try and get some new vids up some time this year. new tank is 8'x4' and seems to be good dims at this time and gives them plenty of turn around room.... No I am not a regular hobbits saying I am "helping" to take care of the sharks but just keep them at their expense. Nor am I asking anyone to believe my "story" I post videos for a learning experience ...Thx

Tank is too small regardless what purpose you feel its serving. You say you are trying to rid them of potential diseases but housing them for any period of time in unfit living conditions is counter productive.

@nakmin123 :I agree... thanks for the info

do the sharks not eat the reef fish

[FastEngine]

At least he is helping. Though he could use a little bigger tank. No offense

[canuckz]

looks like you have every fish from Finding Nemo in there

This is intended for all of those hyper-critical individuals who know nothing about keeping a Guppy, much less a shark of any species. EDUCATE YOURSELVES before posting mean spirited or other hateful comments about this man and his care for Leopard Sharks. Keeping a Leopard Shark is not "illegal". There are rules to follow if you plan on keeping it as a pet. My point here is EDUCATE - EDUCATE before opening ones mouth. Try going to WetWebMedia for expert advice.

@lollopiman124 furthermore if your mind is only strong enough to imagine shrimp in there as an alternative, then you sound as dumb as each other. Tell me has anyone tried the Jedi mind trick on you

[colossuses]

@lolopieman124 It's not about their current size - it's the maximum. He says there only in their for a couple of months at a time.. Do you honestly believe that? Or is it more likely he's just some dude with illegal sharks in in house wanting to show off and not get shitted on for cruelty? If he's so compassionate, then why dosent he post a video of him trying to catch a shark out of there? All that shark need is to ram itself into the side of the tank trying to escape and it's dead.

[lolopieman124]

@colossuses tbh mate they arent anywhere near too big for that tank, hes not exactly supposed to stock a tank that size with fucking shrimp is he?
