pool or possible shark tank

[savethesharks]

Has anyone change their family pool into a shark tank?

Seriously, wat?

when you go on vacation, the neighbor kids will jump the fence to swim. chomp chomp

Why not the only problem is the evaporation and it got to have sand bottom and a lot of aeration

Seriously though, the sharks would get damage from the sides of the pool so you would have to drain it and epoxy sand to all surfaces, then let it cure and add some loose sand to the deep end. Also your intake is probably on the bottom so that would need to be adjusted so the sand/sharks don't get sucked up

Also a giant skimmer because they are dirty!!!

 

[mistalanious]

you should make a enclosure you can get into to watch the sharks.. like a acrylic box with steps... or get a chain mail suit and just swim with it.. fantasy factory styles

 

[Puffalicious]

it would be an awesome idea

The epoxy would also seal in all of the chem used in the pool. Unless you man dam good money I would just buy a 2000 gal pool from Target and set it in the garage or under a patio or something.

I would love to see this happen.

so outside of the said issues, I do think it is possible. You will have to protect the sharks from the side of the pool. What kind of sharks are you thinking? I too have fantasized about doing something like this. I think it would be sick. Or at least a pool converted into a reef tank. That too would be sick.

 

[LotsaFishies]

You would probably want to put some sort of shade cloth over the entire pool... If you have any nitrates, nitrate+sun = massive algae!

 

[ssericz]

its been done look it up in the ocregister... there was a guy who put white tip reef sharks in his pool and he was forced to remove them due to "saftey risk" sucks

that's dumb, they should let people have whatever they want in their houses.

 

[jeepsrt]

Yup, thats why I got alligators, elephants, and some lions at my house. LOL

If only we were aloud to have anything we wanted at our home.....But there is a reason there are laws and regulations.

I am sure it could be done with some special permits and such. Your home would also most likely need to be zoned for such type of animal.

You could always try pond liner

Why would epoxyed sand be smoother than the side of a pool?
