The Atlantis Resort or rather the owners of the Atlantis Resort have nearly 150 sharks in their care.

Since the PDF file I found on the net was released by them. The file was date for Feb. 2006

Covering at least 10 different species.

Including - Blacktips, Blacktip Reefs, Caribbean Reefs, Great Hammerheads, Nurse, Zebra, Blacknose, Bonnetheads, and Sharpnose(doesn't say they are Atlantic or Caribbean).

It's also very possible that either they hadn't collected the sharpies yet or they may have had the sharpies in a holding or QT tank - at the time you were there.

I'm also thinking that if I do eventually keep sharpies - I may need to make the tank/pond enviroment replica - their natural habitat as closely as possible.
