that's an awesome shark . . . how big do they get?

Never heard of the thing! Nonetheless very nice specimen, how big do they get (as above)?

Seems they are 10cm-15cm average.

Territorial, out of the window for me then!

Am in the same boat as the rest of ya lol
have searched the web but not too much is known..
I have seen on a couple of places that it can reach 30cm but i cannot vouch for that.
At the moment he/she is 4inches long and seems quite peaceful..

You know it almost looks like it has had its gill covers removed,

 

[BaDcLaD]

Can assure you the covers are both there
Quite a few people have said that and i can see why..
