I am not familliar how sharks hatch, But i am pretty sure you should have let it break out on its own. They do move around before they are ready to hatch. Ya probably opened up too soon.

i did let it out on time but the egg sack was not there it already eat the egg sack. but . i got a new one for free . i will try to get pics of my new egg.its moving now i know how its alive.

thanks the king fish

I always thought that a shark opened it's egg by itself, just like in nature

But I'm curious for the pics

here goes mine

Normaly it should be able to get out.. They mostly do it at night time(when no lights are on and no activities around...)

and what type of egg sack is that

and what type of egg sack is that

Its a Chiloscyllium punctatum, Banded Cat Shark/Brownbanded Bamboo Shark egg..

If you take close look at the egg, you'll notice embryo inside the sack.. Depending on water flow ant temp. it can take up to 6 months for baby shark to hatch.

I think you should let nature take its course. Let the shark hatch by itself like it does in the wild. But I read that the hard part in keeping shark eggs is getting the baby to start eatting once it is hatched. Good luck to you.

What would be a good tank size for one of these im not asking for the min tank size I would like to know what would be ideal but realastic for an aquarium.

hey king fish i am not sure what ure pet store is telling u but u should not be manually hatching the eggs if they are not strong enuff to break free from the shell they are not going to live anyways

this might seem rude but i have heard of crazier u are keeping these in saltwater right
