XLG Spotted Male Wobbegong shark

Apporox 24-30″

The Spotted Wobbegong Shark (Orectolobus maculatus) is an extraordinary saltwater shark for advanced aquarists, large custom systems, and public-style marine displays. Known for its flattened “carpet shark” body, mottled camouflage pattern, and tasseled facial lobes, this ambush predator blends into rockwork and sandy bottoms with incredible natural detail. Native to reef, rocky, and sandy habitats, the Spotted Wobbegong is a nocturnal bottom-dweller that requires exceptional planning, pristine water quality, heavy filtration, and a very large aquarium footprint. This species is not considered reef safe with fish or mobile invertebrates and should only be housed with carefully selected tankmates that cannot be viewed as prey.
