We have two coral shark eggs. We are prepared and read about them. But seems very limited info. These sharks been active, whether just a small movement of tail or what ever until a few days ago. The yolk sac is about the size of a pencil eraser.
My question is how much time is left at this point?
and I know they are tight in egg now but what type of movement should we be watching for now? I can’t tell Gill movement due to the water movement… just can’t get clear enough view.
Picture was from last night.

Hello, we waited a week after ALL the yolk was gone then assisted in “hatching” they will be stunned and may take a day to realize they aren’t in the egg still, but if you wait to long i’ve been told they can starve or have fin rot! I watched a few youtube vids on assisted hatching but it was fairly easy!

Coral Catsharks are now officially "Near Threatened" conservation status so they will no longer be getting imported.

That’s a bummer they were always my favorite thought it would have been cool to have a pair but doesn’t look like that’s going to happen smh. Anyhow thanks for posting that info!

Yeah, unfortunately not. I do have a pair in my tank that are close to close to breeding size. I will post on here to sell the egg if they ever breed.
