i am not having a problem raising the shark. He is very healthy and happy. I have been to numerous websites and have talked to many professionals about sharks and they all said that it would be fine. I didnt just jump into it, I did my research. Actually, when I was on this website rating fish tanks I saw that someone had a bamaboo cat shark in a 60 gallon tank. That is below the minimum tank size which is 115 gallon.

Other than having high nitrates, I am sure the small shark is fairing quite well for now.
Usually, aquarists learn how to control simple things like nitrates before they attempt to keep more difficult things like LPS, SPS corals and sharks or rays, etc..
Minimum tank sizes are usually very under rated by retailers, which is where most get their information about tank size requirements.
