Ever since I was little, I've always loved sharks. I also love falling asleep thinking about what I would buy if I were to win the lottery.

What size enclosure is needed for a full size bull shark? You always see movie villains with one at there secret base, and one day I will have one. How much do you guess it would cost?
 
Tank size is one thing, but imagine all the cost simply to maintain it...
 
I should think you'd need something like a pool...you know, a swimming pool. Maybe 40'x20'x8' deep would work? I guess that would be near 50,000G.
 
It would need to be huge but imagine how cool that would be. Wonder what else you could put in there. I remember when I used to live across the street basically from the Monterey Bay aquarium I had a membership and I would go eat my lunch and stare at the 1,000,000 gallon tank when they had that great white in there.

this doesnt sound so bad to me, but i remember reading on sharkraycentral that bulls need a few thousand square feet of space and a few hundred thousand gallons. it's a lot, but hey, it's a ten foot obligate ram ventilating shark.
 
Bulls also travel up into freshwater.How would that be worked out?
 
doesnt gilbert arenas have some or is getting some lol

from his blog...

“…Then I’ll have my personal shark tank that’s going to be in my basement. My basement used to be my weight room but I’m converting it to a shark tank. I cut a whole wall out down there and replaced it with a 10,000 gallon shark tank. That’s going to be my aggressive tank, only filled with bullhead sharks. If anybody knows what a bullhead shark is, it’s the No. 1 killing shark in America. It can go in salt water and it can go in fresh water. I’m going to have a salt water tank so I can have my eels and my stingrays too.”

(yes he sounds like an idiot... but he seems to like fish)
