I guess when you have money to burn, you can afford to just experiment and see what happens...

That's a shame- something must be wrong with the way they are being fed. Anyone see Europe's Largest Aquarium on the Travel Channel? It's about setting up an aquarium in Valencia.......

That's what happens when you put naturally aggressive sharks with other fish.

I would not call sand tigers "naturally aggressive" if you take that view point then most if not all predatory fish are naturally aggressive.
However, putting that many predetors in one tank is asking for problems.
I spilled my water laughing at the thunderdome comment though

Kind of like the aquarium in Seattle that had the sharks and a giant octpuss in the same tank-the octo kept attacking and eating the sharks.

An amazing idea and some how even built, but possible with a lack of though. They had lots of hard working engineers and construction guys on the job, maybe next time throw a couple of Biologists in the work pool.... **** i'll put my hand up for the job

We call them Grey Nurse Sharks here in Oz but calling them nautraly aggresive is a bit of the stretch its high up on my to do list to head to our east coast and dive with them
