Shark Eggs
 
Hi

Has anyone seen those live shark eggs at King Ed's?

I'm not intending on buying them but was wondering if anyone knows much about them?

They were fascinating to look at.

Those shark eggs are one of the many creatures I believe should be left in the ocean.

What kind of shark eggs were they? Banded Cat Shark?

I agree they should be left in the seas where they belong...

Hard to tell exactly what they were as they were too small & obscured by the egg but the pattern was banded shark-like but I can't 100% sure.

Banded Cat Sharks are often called Bamboo Sharks as well. Or Banded Bamboo Cat Shark. LOL! They are what are on display at Big Al's shark tank. Here's a tidbit of info:

Banded Bamboo Cat Shark... :)

I wonder what King Ed's will do with them if nobody buys them...

That octopus didn't look too happy when I saw it. All curled up in a corner of that teeny tank in a tank. I guess they need that lid tightly closed!

I've never seen live shark eggs before so was captivated for a while.
