The other thing is thats its in a massive aquarium with 5 others of about the same size and the owner said they cant get anybody to get them out, a net wont work because the sharks will hide etc...

So its going to be a 3 man job, a few plastic sheets, waders, gloves and some balls lol.

Would love to see pics of the fish tank

Going to be a big one if the shark is just under a metre in length.
