Hello people! This is my first post here and i woud just like to say that this forum is amazing :)

Now to my question, I have two bamboo sharks and there is nothing wrong whit them, Eating like pigs and surfs around at night ;) The thing i have been reading about is there ability to get Goiter and that its a big chanse that they do if you dont implement iodine in there nutrition. I try to give them differente foods like shrimp / squid / and other marine fish filletes. The male eats almost everything but my female only eats squid and that might not be a good thing in the long run?
So how do i get the sharks there iodine and what vitamins are the female missing out on for just eating squid. I relly want the best for my animals...

Sorry for spelling errors :D

Mazuri makes a great shark supplement that will take care of the iodine. Freshly killed food or live shrimp will also contain higher levels for them.

Ocean Nutrition also sells a prepared shark/ray frozen diet that has vitamin supplements in it. Alot of my shark pups thrive on it.
