It makes me think of one of those tanks you see at the Asian market... Super overcrowded and just there temporarily until sold to be eaten.

Looks like the sharks have outgrown that tank. I feel bad for them, when they have to make a turn they can't straighten out before having to turn again. Can humans live in a jail cell yes but is it a quality life no.

The problem with videos like that is there is so many unknowns. That could be a holding tank that everyone got stuck in because another tank had a problem. I mean what do you do if your 5000 gal shark tank develops a leak, call Shedd?
