The Marbled Cat Shark, Chiloscyllium plagiosum, is a  small reef shark species. The Marbled Cat Shark boasts a striking marbled pattern, characterized by alternating patches of dark and light hues across its body. This mesmerizing coloration adds a touch of elegance and intrigue to any aquatic environment, making it a focal point of the aquarium. When hatched, the shark will be around 4 - 6 inches in length and can grow to a maximum size of around 24 inches. They are not considered reef safe in an aquarium as they will eat small fish and inverts. Feed them a diet of cut up shrimp, fish, squid, and other meaty foods 1-2 times per day.

A gorgeous healthy Marbled Cat Shark. Arrived quickly and adapted quickly. Likes to hang out with my Mimic Tang. I purchased three different species and everyone is doing well!
