Buying New Fish, Need Advice Please.

[beany_bot]

Hi guys, im going to buy a Carcharodon carcharias (hopefully male) from my LFS and I have a 5 gallon all set up and ready to go and i have bought some fish flakes to feed him. hopefully get a bredding pair soon and have little babies, be so cute. Is there any special things i need to know about this fish?. I have put in a few rocks and some weeds so he can hide if he gets scared at night.

you might need to add a few humans to the feeding list . and i am sure i heard they like to chew on boats, so that might be worth a look too. but the tank size may need looking at, as it matures it might just need a bigger tank. perhaps one more like the size of the Pacific or Atlantic oceans

Ohh, I was just going to "overfilter" the tank. Yeah, that should work

I ordered a Rhincodon typus, do you think I should quarantine it? Can I borrow a tank? Maybe I could share with your fish.

5 should be enough for a little while...as these fish reach lengths of 20 feet.
