Don't stress it too much, Mellawson. This situation is similiar to mine. I like Silver-tipped sharks but I can't put them in any of my tanks because they need a LOT of swimming space. They are caught rarely in a tank doing nothing. They are always seen swimming very fast when healthy. The only time they sit still is probably at rest or if they are sick/dead. Also, They need a little bit of salt to thrive in which I can't do in freshwater. What I suggest to you is to wait until you can gain the right requirements to meet the fish's needs because even though I am kind of new at this hobby, I learned that even though you want a fish because it appeals to you, you shouldn't get it inless if you have what it takes to take good care of it. I hope you eventually get what you need to get one though because I always admire a person that does what it takes to get what they want.
