    Default Ridiculous Tank @Applebees = dead shark

    The new Applebee's restaurant in Coney Island celebrates its grand opening Monday - and death is on the menu.

    A blacktip shark had to be removed Friday from the restaurant's 5,000-gallon aquarium after devouring three Lookdown fish in a shocking killing spree.

    That very same day, a whitetip shark died after colliding with a three-foot Wonder Wheel replica in the tank, leaving employees shaken by the mayhem.

    The story reported by the New York Times, indicates the sharks were added too quickly and were disoriented. However, these decorations seem like a death trap for long fish like sharks.

    What do you guys think?
