risc, thanks for the info! when I'm ready, I hope you'll be around if I have more questions. I think I am going to put the word out to my distributors to look out for a Ward's Wobbegong. I believe I can give it the best environment while still having some leway about tankmates as long as they...

hello I'm Kevin and I'm one of the guys in the saltwater section of Niagara Aquarium Pet Shoppe on Military Rd in Kenmore. we've got some great stuff so come on in and check it out.

Risc, that's the one. it's great. but i would really like to get into the wobbegongs. so any info you could give is appreciated. i keep great filtration, protein skimming, and uv sterilization. but i need to know speial needs, possible tank mates, things to be cautious of, tank size needed, etc...

Thanks Risc, mine has spots all over the body with 2 patches over the "shoulders" its beigish tan, with a whitish belly, if that helps (speckled??? a guess) I wouldn't put a trigger with them, they'd kill the sharks. there just isnt a lot of info around here on wobbegongs, and other than cat and...

Risc, the epaulette i have is listed in "MARINE FISHES"by scott michael as aHemiscyllium Ocellatum if that helps. i also asked one of the distributers at the lfs i work at if they ever get the wobbegongs we discussed and they said now is usually when they start showing up. thanks for the info on...

if you don't mind, I have s few questions for you. I currently own 1 epaullette (male)about 2' and I hatched a banded cat now just under 1'. I am interested in the wobbegongs you were mentioning. would the get along? how can I get one? and what to feed them. also any other possible additions.I...

I agree, snowflakes are much easier! however i have a ghost ribbon who is doing very well for over a year and eating frozen krill and silversides i found they are much easier then blue or black but are much harder to find. however, there is nothing like them!

i have had two, they are beautiful but sometimes difficult to keep alive. when you look for one, make sure it is active and feeding. ask the store to feed it for you also watch yellow tangs around it, some tangs pick on them.feed it seaweed selects if you can, the green one, mine liked it.
