562 Gallon shark tank

Dosent matter if shark eats them to me

 

[Fishfreak2009]

I added some cleaner snails and a clown fish.

Gonna go look at baby bamboo and coral sharks this wednesday.

Question.

Can I put small 10 for $10 dollar hermit crabs in the 600 gallon with the 7 inch long 2 week old bamboo shark?

I dont Carr if the shark wats them or not.

I care only for the safety of the shark

I used to all the time. My bamboos would eat them from time to time, but most survived just fine. Never bothered the shark

So if I put 30 of the small half inch sized hermit crabs in with the baby bamboo shark or baby coral cat..

Based on your experience the sharks will be fine?

Yup. Should be no issue

 

[killemall]

Thank you

Be an epic slow moving battle

Very cool all around. The pond is going to be stellar! Care to post a better pic of the monitor? Maybe the habitat you have for it? Super intrigued... Varanus spp are great! Always wanted one but don't have the space really.

 

[killemall]

My water monitor is still a baby. Just 13 months old

Heres her home. 63x18 inches


Shes getting a 96x48 inch home in April or May

Pictures? I am curious to know which species.

 

[killemall]

Snail has one long stem that goes out and up. It buries itself in sand and the one limb sticks out

The snail look like a Nassarius aka "Zombie" snail. They are awesome, popular sand sifters and are quick to consume leftovers and decaying matter that sink to the bottom, emerging from the substrate like... zombies. The "stem" is its siphon, which it uses to breath and smell. As for the clownfish, I am not sure about its longevity with elasmobranchs, due to its small size (@pandaparties had a Round stingray (Urobatis halleri), a "small" elasmobranch, consume 2 Clowns, an Engineer goby, a Diamond goby, and a Royal gramma ).

Added new shark

Great specimen! Does she (I am seeing no claspers) have a name?

 

[killemall]

A Male. Claspers seen easily in real life. His name is Thumper.


I might have jumped the gun. Got 2 yellow wrasse fish as well.

Was ensured they wont bother the sharks but want to clarify with you fine gents

 

[killemall]

Yes. The Walking Dead Zombie snails. Far more interesting than I ever imagined. I have 9 now but will definitly get more

Love everything about this thread from monitor to shark lol dream setups future man cave material for me haha, I used to own an Nile monitor and I do miss it, loved to eat ground turkey and eggs for a treat. one day I’ll own an Argus monitor they are one of my favorites although moody

 

[killemall]

I've been keeping Monitors since 1991

Love them. These are my first sharks

 

[dvgyfresh]

that’s dope, do you have a favorite monitor?
I would love to get my hands on an australian one but think it’s illegal or something lol

 

[killemall]

Mt White throat monitor Groot was by far my favorite

 

[dvgyfresh]
