We study the low frequency current correlations of an individual single-walled carbon nanotube at liquid He temperature. We have distinguished two physical regimes -- zero dimensional quantum dot and one dimensional quantum wire -- in terms of an energy spacing from the finite tube length in both differential conductance and shot noise measurements. In a one dimensional wire regime, we observed a highly suppressed shot noise from all measured tube devices, suggesting that electron-electron interactions play an important role.
