She's serious about that. I asked about two things one time, and all I remember is waking up the next day in the hospital with a tube down my throat and a machine breathing for me. :D

Yes, he learned his lesson the hard way... ONE thing at a time.:ROFL:




LMAO you are so full of it Matt, haha you know as well as I, that you know the same junkage that I do, lol - I just talk more. :D
 
I agree with VLdesign on the scallops. I took very good care of a bamboo shark known as "Jerome" at Animal Kingdom in Brewster, NY for a summer. As they lack any but pharyngeal teeth, hand feeding is amazingly fun. I found that (though my co-workers would feed him, god forbid, goldfish) squid and clam chunks provided him with the greatest energy and interactivity. Krill was provided from time to time, but I would always spoil him with the squid.
 
my bamboo is about 24 in , and feeds on frozen sand eels or silver sides, feed at night and i feed him a small hand full. i get gohst shrimp about every other week. usualy around 3 dozen. but he will only eat most of the time a t night, so it seems as if he dont eat them, but i know he dose. i currently have him in my reef tank a 200 gal tank. but he needs a bigger place to live soon so i need to set up something in the basement. never had a prob with this one but i did have one that lived about 8 months and got a bact infection and he stoped eating. also try frozen squid, but thaw it out first.
hope this helps out, good luck they are a realy cool fish in the right setting.
