Great pics and thanks for the update. Im glad to see you will be around more often.





I cant believe your lfs sells them they will qickly outgrow almost any home aqarium. you need at least 3000 gallons to house on once full grown. they will eat anything they can fit in their mouth including other sharks and even their same species. They also do not tend to fair very will in aquariums

I was super bummed about my Koran as well. I wanted everyone to see it as an adult. He actually was farther along than my current one. I actually almost cried. I am happy to still have one tho. In time, I hope you will be able to accept me as your "Koran Brother". lol

bummer about the Sohal. They can get aggressive but are just so pretty. I would think about one in the future if my Naso died.

Big sharks should be kept in the ocean. The ONLY shark I could recommend that is big would be the nurse shark. They only need 1,000 since they don't move much. Even then, 1,000 gallons is so freakin' huge, no one can keep them. I have heard of Bonnetheads or Smoothhound sharks doing well in tanks about 600 gallons, but I am not sure if that is for just a short time or lifelong. Luckily, I am totally stoked about my grey-banded bamboo, squishy. He is the bomb!

They are starting to become a fish I believe should also be left in the ocean.

Doc we can still be koran bros I won't disown you.

Doc is loyal to no one. I once thought we had something special (a pink-tail trigger is a rare beauty to see) but my hopes and dreams for Tangent and Cosine to live happy trigger lives together was shattered. I am sorry you have suffered the same fate.

Ouch...way to bring up old issues to slam in my face...lol I may cry myself to sleep tonight! Good to see you haven't changed. Hell, I am talking like I have been gone for a year or longer, but in our cyberspace world of impulse control disorders, I guess a few months can feel like an eternity!

Alexander, I ain't quittin' you, don't worry Bro, we will have our massive shark tanks. Probably you before me tho....

I'm a reefer shunned. It's like you just walked out on me; didn't even bother to say goodbye.

tank looks glorious! A little disappointed I didn't see the shark though, but glad to see you back and taking pictures.

[Alexander]

Well doc I don't think you slammed me too bad, you replaced the koran with another koran so its sad, but ok.

And I really hope I have a tank that large first, because that will probably also mean I'm financially independent.

[simpleman]

Good to see you back Doc! Your tank is looking great and sorry to hear about your Koran. I have always admired your big angel tanks.

[reeffreak]

Your tank looks amazing Doc!I'm glad you made an appearance.I know how busy you are with work and family but at least try to pop in once a week.

[I was complimentary,next time,I'm back to my smart ass ways...umkay.]
