marine sharks are for experts, and need a LOT of space. livaquaria reccommends sharks only for zoos and public aquariums, large sharks or small. if you really want a shark, livaquaria sells cat shark eggs. a shark hatched and raised in an aquarium would do much better than one taken from the wild. go to the below link.
You do not need an aquarium to house paroon sharks (Pangasius sanitwongsei) but rather a large pond. The fish grows up to 8 feet, and so needs a pond of about 25 feet or more.
More info on the iridescent shark (Pangasius hypophthalmus)
and on the paroon shark at http://www.planetcatfish.com Just click Cat-eLog and search for “paroon shark” and “iridescent shark.”
paroon sharks need 900g or more they get up to 8 feet with proper care im going to build me a 1000g tank and buy 3 of them. i want them soooo freaking much. please don’t buy them unless ur going to get 900 gallon fish tank
