Cuisine & Edibility
Great Hammerhead Shark

Species Overview
Great Hammerhead Shark
The great hammerhead is the largest of the nine hammerhead shark species. Its distinctive cephalofoil (hammer-shaped head) houses an array of electroreceptors that allow it to detect stingrays buried beneath the sand.
Oscar
The oscar is a large, intelligent cichlid native to the Amazon basin. Known for its dog-like personality, it can recognize its owner and may beg for food. Oscars rearrange their tank decor and require spacious aquariums with robust filtration.
