Epaulette Shark Pair (Hemiscyllium hallstromi)

[Sun_Shine]

I originally posted this on ReefCentral but Casper suggested I post over here.

We purchased this pair of sharks from Liveaquaria, and due to a shipping error, they are not what we ordered off the Diver's Den WYSIWYG page.

We received the male we originally ordered, but the original female went to a different customer. They went out of their way to make good on the mistake, but when the replacement female arrived on Saturday, she did not have the same patterning. Both where Halstromi, both were healthy, both looked good, but they were not what we ordered for $800. We ordered a specific pair. So, after keeping them a couple weeks, we decided to sell them. We just want to make our money back.

They are eating frozen shrimp and Ocean Nutritian Shark food.

Photos are on our website, www.twogeckos.com . I can send additional pics if you want. I'm willing to meet someone in Maryland if you don't want to pay shipping.

Now I originally wanted the $800 for them, but since I've very little response, I'm open to offers. We've sold on Ebay and Seahorse.org under my log in name SunShine through our business name Propagation Inc (although it's more of a hobby than a business).

Feel free to email me: happy@twogeckos.com.

This is an adult pair that are eating frozen food with gusto. They do not get larger than 30" and cruise all over the sand. They need a large footprint, but are not big swimmers, rather they dig and rummage and 'walk' on their fins. They are an awesome shark, but we already have a younger pair that has more matched markings.

I'm willing to meet anyone in Maryland so you can save on shipping. I'll send video or pics to anyone interested. Just lemmie know.

Yep. That's where we bought them. We're not making a profit on this pair at all. Sucks. But, unlike the pair that's up there now, these are adults, and I'm willing to meet anyone in Maryland who wants to save on shipping.

Thanks!
