Look at the YouTube videos everyone person I seen with this shark has the same tank
Hello Jordan can I ask you to list your tank specs and perimeters so I can help figure this out?
Shark is gonna die. You can tell by the pictures the tank was a freshwater with the fake pineapple and driftwood and a round rock.
Also tank is too small bamboos will get about 3-4 ft and are quite thick. Yes they don’t swim around much and a square tank is actually ok with a bamboo. You as a noob should still not own one and a bigger tank of about 300-400 gallons minimum is required.

Back to your question my answer is NO. That shark should be swimming side to side not digging in a corner.
A good tip for sizing fish is if your fish is longer then the width of your tank(not length) the fish is too big for that tank. Learned that one back in my fresh water days

Okay let me get back at u tomorrow I’ve run out of the testing fluids thing however the last time I tested it was 3 days ago and it was in the green but I can’t remember the exact numbers and I want to give u the exact numbers so when the pet store opens I will get a new testing kit to give you exact numbers…but is 125 gallon tank for RIGHT NOW not forever

He's not encouraging the behavior he is saying to treat members in a better manner.
If this is fake and if this guy is trying to get everyone worked up, I think he's done it.
If this is real then we as a group need to help better than just say the OP is stupid and other negative things.
OP please do your best to get a proper set up for your shark.
If you don't know what you need then definitely ask.
So far we know you need a circular tank and if you can get your hands on some live rock that would be excellent as well.
125 gallon is not so bad for now. 6 ft long. Round is obviously better but. So how long has it been up and running for ?
Good deal, for care beyond 2 months if the animal eats, you should consider a 700-1000 gallon tank/container, around 20k usd typically, also you will need around 800-1500 pounds of live rock(3-5USD/lb), some sort of commercial filtration system around 5-8k, and a food cost of nearly 500 a month as it matures.
You can do it, but be sure to price it in.
Also this species needs a fine sand bed from what I remember, will not be cheap.
It’s been running for a year now
You don’t need test kits to know your salinity and temp.
9/10 ppl on here who tested their parameters in the past week or two could rattle off their primary figures in a heart beat, by memory alone.

Is this the only fish in the tank?
Oh boy. That’s a lot of food.
my bamboo needed lower temp long term, around 75, back in those days everyone had a chiller due to hailides, I do not think this tank has a chiller.
Personal attacks will not be tolerated and will result in either a thread ban or a temp ban from R2R, you are all adults so please act like it. Lets try and get the thread back on topic so I do not have to lock it.
