Coral Catshark (Atelomycterus marmoratus)

[ross k.]

Has anyone here ever kept a coral catshark? Are they as easy to breed as bamboo sharks? Is it possible to keep them with abalones? I have snails in the tank which havent been eaten by the sharks so i was wondering if an abalone would be safe. Thanks for any help.

Ahh. One of my favorites. Their max size is smaller than the bamboos. Don't know about the breeding part. They are an agressive little bugger. Snails, hermits, tankmates that are too small get eaten. The abalone should be OK with it.
Check this link. There is some info on the coral catshark. http://www.reeftectonics.com/shark_keeping.htm
