    Our Catshark hatched last night on its own. I will try to get up the video in a while but it is doing well. It still has a small yolk attached to it which we have been told will be there for 7-14 days and is completely normal. We have it it a refuge tank inside our tank until the yolk is gone. It did eat some mysis last night and all looks well.

    Baby is still doing well--seems to be eating but won't let us target feed.
