Just make sure you let the shark come out of the egg do not help it
Innovator said:You'd be better off using the squid heads as a vessel to gut-load iodine tabs or a basic shark tab (mazuri) and incorporating other, better options for feeding in case squid is all you offer Solid foods, unless injected with a thich serum, usually won't "soak in " a solution and your liquid simply disperses as soon as it hits water.
I keep small sharks, rays, and other marine life for a living (in case you wonder of my exp. ). At birth earthworms, black worms, frozen mysis, and ghost shrimp. If I must force-feed it's usually a carnivore diet (like canned dog food). As juvies/adults I feed capelin, shrimp, silversides, squid heads/tentacles, shrimp, and sometimes herring. Sharks can be picky and their tastes as juvies can change as they age. They get a different food item every feeding, at least 3 times weekly.
Innovator said:Squid is primarily water based other than the head region (brain and tentacles) and best used as a vessel for gut-loading vitamins. For a newborn you'll prob be feeding portions more frequently (at least 3 times weekly) and can be judged by the size of the outer gut region. Once they approach juvenile stage they can be slowed to maintain proper weight control (you don't want an overweight shark). Sharks really aren't that messy while feeding unless feeding messy/oily/fatty foods since they tend to gulp their meals. What comes out on the other end is another story. I'd perform water changes for a newborn at least every other week due to their sensitivities.
