Australian Epaulette Shark EXPERT ONLY

The Australian Epaulette Shark is a relatively tiny bottom-dwelling shark. It is distinguished by a number of tiny spots on its yellowish-tan-colored body. It can be identified by the huge spot that is right in front of every pectoral fin. It is believed that the Australian Epaulette Shark can reach a maximum dimension of 42". A tank that's 360 gallons or more will suffice. Sand is the only substrate for the aquarium. The abdomen of the Epaulette can be easily scratched by a rougher substrate that could lead to an infection. It should not be exposed to copper-based medicines. This Epaulette Shark will eat invertebrates inside the aquarium, and, since it is most active at night, it will devour all small, sleepy fish. When it is introduced to the aquarium, tiny pieces of squid that have been cleaned as well as live shrimp from the saltwater feeder must be utilized to lure the fish to take in food. Then, it can be fed scallops, shrimp, or seafood that is fresh. It is believed that the Epaulette Shark should only be maintained by aquarists who are experts.
