Anybody know what size of a tank I might need to keep a remora?

Would a 700-800 gallon be enough for one of these hyper active shark look alikes?

Ramoras are in no way "shark lookalikes". Are you sure you have the correct name? Ramoras hitchhike on sharks by using a specially adapted first dorsal fin that acts like a suction pad to latch on to a passing shark and then feed on scraps from the shark's meals.

Yes, a 700-800 gallon tank would probably just manage to hold ONE ramora. They grow up to about 2.5', though, so it certainly wouldn't be a very happy fish - like shutting it up in a broom closet.

Yeah, my first thought was 50-60 thousand gallons.
