I just had a shark hatch and he is just laying around on the bottom ot the tank. I am just wondering if that is normal or if something might be wrong. I guess i am also looking for some advice on how they act in the first few weeks of life. Thanks for you feedback:bigsmile:

When mine hatched he was tame during the day but pretty active leading into the night. I had to pretty much had feed mine with tongs untill he got a bit larger, i just wouldnt see him eat and the other fish would grab all of the food, i was feeding ghost shrimp and krill twice directly and would and loose krill to sorta float around the tank. After a month i would just add the shrimp and krill and he was able to eat that way. It was a very interesting little guy, but after about 8 months i had him jump out of the tank
