Three of the star investors from 'Shark Tank' were at Florida Atlantic University this week and presented a version of the TV show for entrepreneurs in South Florida.

Robert Herjavec, Daymond John and Kevin O'Leary, known for his nickname "Mr. Wonderful," were at Nobile Capital Markets' NobleCon conference.

During what they called "Croc Tank," four people presented their products to the sharks but only one walked away with a deal.

Kevin O'Leary agreed to do business with the founder of "Epipaws," a genetic testing kit for pets.

Kevin: "I'll do the $250,000. I want 20 percent...and I have no flexibility."

Entrepreneur: "Alright Mr. Wonderful. Let's do this."

Dr. Andria Beal is a scientist and researcher at FAU's Research Park. The sharks also spoke to attendees about entrepreneurship and other topics.
