| Re: Swimming Shark For 900 Gal At one of my LFS they have a white tip reef shark in a 800gal i think, the shark is about 3 1/2 feet long... its been in there for a couple of years now since they ask 5 000$ for it.  . I think a mature male will reach about 7 feet and females are a little smaller but im not sure will have to check that out.
