Little Big sharky ( hatched 010505 )
* Almost going three weeks liao since it hatched.
* Growing very fast ( i mean in length )
* Eating alot.. starting dun feed on anything, then small size live
ghost shrimp (1cm), upgrade to bigger size ghost shrimp
( max feed before is 4 cm)
* Started to train on forzens ( market forzen prawn), at first reject,
but after a few tries, slowly take in forzens and also others forzens
like clam, sotong etc. Now able to accpet forzens for the way but i
still feed live to watch it fight
* From Observation, senses have started to grow, swim more instead
of crawling. veri active in the night as it swims around the tank to
search for food..
( finally able to see something swimming in the tank Liao )



below is a photo took last night,.... more than 6 inch liao.. guess around 8~9 inches in full length from head to toe.hmmm i mean tail..

Little small sharky ( hatched : 050505 ) nice number

* Almost going 2 weeks liao since it hatched.
* Hatched as an premature baby meaning with the egg york with it
* have not feed due this baby is still veri rich from it york and also
it refuse any live food. Only until 2 days ago, just started
feeding on live small ghost shrimp.(1cm) Whee.. eating finally ....
* Eating amount starting to open up.. but still veri slow in detecting
the shrimp.. had to spoon feed it til it mouth..
* From Observation, senses have started to grow but still quite weak
, still crawling and looks more like a puppy . more active in the
night.

below is a photo took last night,.... more than 6 inch liao.. guess around 7 inches in full length from head to toe.hmmm i mean tail.. sorry it crawl away before i can press the DC button

Awsome pics! I love sharks. I tried one when I first started the hobby 5 years ago. It was a very poor decision. Foolish. The guy hatched and lived for a few weeks and then passed away. I would love to have a shark but they get so BIG!

What size tank do you have these guys in?

Thats cool. Sharks in a 15. Whodathunkit. Where are you going to move them too? If I was brave I would attempt a shark in my 30 but I think I have reached max capacity and honestly, I don't want to kill anything just for greed purposes.

Love the sharks!

hi guys ...........

finally after making up my mind on the little sharky furture.. decided to let it go to a better home .. well after the great little babies were gone...... my nano " christine" will be empty.. therefore now thinking of wat to keep in it ... ..

been thinking.. will do a 50% water change once the babies were gone.. and let it cycle it for a week with the skimmer turn on for 24hrs for 7 seven days.. hoping to reduce any N02 or organic waste that still linger int he water.. for a better quailty water before introducing new live thing inside.....
