This species is often sold in pet stores but does not do well as a pet due to the need for cold water and large tanks. This shark feeds on bottom-dwelling prey such as worms, clams, crabs, shrimp, octopus, and small fish. It has small, pointed teeth which it uses to capture its prey. Date: 20 July 2008, 14:57.
