I normally bought my squid in Kroger for about $6.00 for 3 pounds which I then had to clean and cut up. But it was better then paying $6.00 for 8 oz at the LFS. I would think that you could find squid in most larger grocery stores in the US, but I don't know about around the world. But then you could always try the LFS.
 
Yep but i live in Sweden and i dont know where to buy squid..
But i can find fresh cod etc if that will do?
 
Yes ofcourse its better i didnt mean just cod but maybe shrimp and shark pellets formula one??
 
I have raised hundreds of bamboo sharks and I would suggest starting off with a whitespotted bamboo first. They do much better right out of the egg and seem to hide less. If you have your heart set on a BB and you can’t seem to get it to eat, target feed squid tentacles. I like to use a thin piece of stainless steel brazing wire to target feed them. If they are in with other fish you just want to make sure they are not getting out competed for food. Once you see they are eating well, off the bottom I like switching their diet up, small pieces of shrimp with the shell still on, small pieces of fish, fine cut squid and so on. Once they are full grown I have seen them eat whole mackerel! And yeah I would not recommend the nurse shark LOL.
 
Thank u for the food info and yes i do have a problem that he wont eat ive had him for 2days now and he doesnt even smell on the food.
I try with shrimp heads but nothing.
 
Well he killed 1 of my snails in the tank tonight and he is moving around more. Hopefully he starts eting when i see it soon.

I was always told that sharks may go up to 2 weeks or more without eating after being moved.

Adults, yes.
Pups, no. They tend to not do well that long off of food.
