Families, 2000 gallon Shark tank..

this is what i belive is only a 2000 gallon tank , that houses 2 black tips, and a Dog Face puffer..

Filtration on this unit is a 200 Gallon Sump divided in 1/2 , 1 half full of Floss and the other full of Bio Balls.

There is a lot more to it,

my uncle is a Marine Biologist, and these where just an at home study, They where put into this tank at birth... and they will stay in this tank untill they hit 24 months old as between 2-3 years is when they become sexually mature.. at that point is where they will go back to a designated zoo, for breeding..

IN all honesty, these sharks usally dont stay much more than 12-14 months, before they have a much better home to go too..
