Shark hatched

[Tfain]

My shark hatched today while I was at school. He's so cool. Now I just need to get him to eat

He's beautiful! I don't do salt. What species is that?

 

[meegosh]

I'm not a saltie either but it looks like a Bamboo shark to me.

[hiltymj]

Congratz look pretty awesome

 

[Tfain]

Thanks guys. If anyone knows how to get him to eat please tell me

try garlic? idk bout sharks but i know some people use it to get fish to eat

 

[Gubernaculum86]

From what I've heard they can take a couple of days to get to eat bc they still have the remnants of the yolk sac attached to them and are still drAwing nutrients from it

 

[Tfain]

Yea that's what I was thinking cause I still see his yolk

 

[tbarcomb]

Ghost shrimp work the best

 

[rain87]

What size tank do you have him in?

 

[Tfain]

Iv been trying the ghost shrip but he won't eat them. And right now he's in a 30 gallon but within 3 weeks I'm moving him
Into a 180 gallon tank and I'll be looking for an even bigger tank soon

Good! Thats a good start. I hope your aware that they need a 500g tank! They get 3+". Good Luck!!!!!

Congratulations on the shark! Mine should be hatching soon! Did he have any remnants of the yolk sac after he hatched? Right now mine has a very small ball(smaller than a skittle) and a cord attaching it to himself.

 

[Tfain]

Yea. He had a small little ball about the size of a bb gun pellet. But it was right up against his body. I think it's why he won't eat yet
