Try to get hold of a copy of PFK oct 2001, there is a good article there. Basic points are,the tank should be 2x length of the shark and at least 2 1/2 times the length.Bamboo sharks being 37" to 41" at maturity depending on what type. Therefore a tank with a floor area of 9foot by 7foot should be fine. T M C can supply most types of shark and the smallest is a peppered catshark at onlt 12". P.s Just noticed a Gray bamboo shark only reaches 30". Hope this helps. Terry |

To clarify dimensions because it even baffled me and I typed it. Back to front 2 x the size of fish and length of tank = 2 1/2 times. Is that better. |
