Keeping Marine Hammerhead Shark in captivity

[bettadaze]

That is the coolest thing I've seen on here. What do you feed them?

Ah, scalloped nice. That is the smallest species if I'm not mistaken. Awesome.

I was also curious what you feed them and what sort of shark tab vitamins you use? Or if you use them at all? I was also wondering if you don't mind me asking who it was you spoke to at Monterey? Sounds like it was my supervisor.

I'll try to post some pics of the hammers at Monterey Bay sometime.

Bonnetheads are the smallest species.

Bonnetheads are the smallest species.

Thats what I thought and sadly enough they turn up in stores here every once and a while.

Sorry for the late response. They eat squids and this makes it simple to put the vitamine tablets from Aquaecosys into the squids' body and keeps the sharks healthy. I spoke with John O'Sullivan. But he confirmed that Monteray Bay Aquarium does not have any more scallops and the last time they transported any was in 2002. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Dean, they have several scalloped hammerheads at the MBA in the Outer Bay exhibit. Gorgeous, fast, and very cool looking.
