I recently made a chain catshark sculpture for an inspiring little marine biologist who is quite dear to me. Thus, creating these little babies that you can carry around for a little cute serotonin boost✨ I only have three available currently, but I’d be oh so happy to make more🌿 check them out here!

Which species of sharks and rays does your aquarium keep? Any pics? 👀 Loved that pride shark. who is she??
Aaaaaaah we are a p small aquarium focusing on marine life local to us, so we only have 2 species of shark (smooth dogfish and chain catshark) as well as little skate, all of which can be found in the waters around where I live! The pride shark is one of our smooth dogfish sharks, and they are fun lil guys!!!
Some of these pictures are old (we have since upgraded our sharks and skates setup since we got a grant) but they'll give you an idea of what these guys look like.
Tumblr media
Chain catsharks (about 2 ft long), crepuscular, UV-fluorescent, and like sleeping in clumps :)
smooth dogfish shark tank (about 2.5-3 ft long), very active, likes spyhopping a lot
Tumblr media
little skate underside w their silly lil mouths and feet :) (about 1.5 ft wingspan), very curious, like sitting on rocks
Tumblr media
baby little skates!! they hatch out of mermaids purse eggs and we raise them in the aquarium to release when they're older!!!
Tumblr media
and baby chain catsharks that we also raise in-aquarium!! they're like the size of a finger and they're very skittish and shy :(((
some old bonus vids i'm linking are baby skate saying hi, baby skates in their egg cases, and one of our old dogfish sharks before we released him!!

They're laughing bc ur a landlubber - Femslash February day 6 "Mermaid AU" listen man I really don't have the time to be drawing but I really wanted to try my hand at unconventional mermaids so here we are For their humanoid appearances, I referenced their designs from the show Harley Quinn. For their mermaid components, Harley is a Chain Catshark (they glow! I think?) and Ivy is a type of Siphonophore (they also glow, I think? If not, this one does because I say so). ✰  ☾    ✰  ☾    ✰  ☾    ✰  ☾    ✰  ☾    ✰  ☾    ✰  ☾    ✰  ☾    ✰  ☾    ✰   ☾    ✰  ☾

Ok ok ur mermay is inspired!!! How are you picking the shark bodies for each player? What’s the thought process there?
aww thank you!!! I'm glad you are enjoying them! Honestly when I came up with the series I had no idea if anyone else was gonna vibe with it since its a bit out there, but the "mermaid-loving-biology-nerd-sharks-fan" in me couldn't resist. It ranges a bit player to player, It's a lot of behavioral vibes or visual cues... For example I aligned Hertl to a Whale Shark for the gentle giant vibes. (I have more behavioral matches I was about to list but I just realized they aren't live yet 🙊🙈) and then visually there are things like, the "barrel chested" shape of Sandsharks felt very Burnzie, and the pattern of Chain Catsharks looked like a designer bag which felt extremely Timo etc etc. Its a lot of flipping through my old Shark field guides and just kind of feeling out the ~energy~ hahah hope that makes sense! <3

Percy nearly jumped back in shock when glowing yellow eyes snapped open, glaring at him with a strangely human-like rage. A fraction of a second later, the creature lunged through the water and slammed itself up against the glass, mouth wide and teeth bared as it let out a demonic shriek that was only muffled slightly by the water. Its fins flared, with tiny spots of eerie blue bioluminescence glowing and illuminating the creature’s pale sandy-colored skin laced with thin black markings like cracks in glass. It somewhat looked both like a chain catshark and an anglerfish and yet like neither at the same time. It truly was unlike anything Percy had ever seen before. And it was glaring ー teeth bared and fins flared ー at him with such anger and hatred and pain and fear that it shocked him just as much as the thing lunging at him had.
“What is that?” He asked Piper.
She shook her head. “No idea. According to the sign next to their tank, they’re ‘a beast the likes of which has never before been seen on earth’.” The words fell, hard and bitter, from her lips, a sure sign of her distaste for how they had treated this creature. Percy couldn’t agree more with that sentiment.

Wait no one ask about the ladies of overwatch I'm offended. May I ask for sombra,symmetry,phara and dva please for the sea monster or mermaid ask please. Thank you writing all of this.
Sorry this took so long guys, I’ve been busy with the end of the semester. I’m hoping to get another set out tonight and work on a longer fic I have. Let me know if you want any other requests; I love all the fantasy stuff!
Sombra:
Sombra is abio-florescent chain catshark; she glows purple in the dark, spots flashingbrightly. She’s able to control her coloring, unlike most other catsharksmeaning that she glows when she wants to. She’s a master of surprise, becomingcompletely invisible in the deep ocean.
She’s fascinatedwith human technology, having a hidden cave where she sets up her workshop. Asthe most successful hacker in the world she’s very busy with jobs, travelingfrom country to country.
Her identity ishidden partly because she’s a mer and partly because she thinks it’s funny. Youonly learn her real name years after being with her, curled in her arms as youfloat through the water. You have to swear to never use it outside the cave, Sombra saying that people would target you if you spoke of her. It’s one of the waysthat you really know she loves you.
Symmetra:
Satya is partoctopus, her tentacles fading from dark blue, almost black at the top to a very light skyblue at the ends. Her suckers are a light pink, nothing too gaudy. They blend in very well with the ocean water so she can sneak up on othermers easily. She’s able to camouflage her skin to match her environment, makingher a master of hiding unless she wants to be seen.
She is one of thefew masters of hard light, a special type of merpeople magic. Her tentaclesmake it easy to create wondrous shapes, body flowing majestically. Satya has“unconventional” beauty; other mers are hesitant to speak to her because of heroctopus background but nothing is more beautiful than watching her work.
She enjoys makingyou trinkets when you begin to talk, courting you in the formal merpeople way.She creates shadow boxes with scenes from the ocean, schools of colorful fishand seashells. You have a large collection by the end of the courting period;you’ll need a new shelf when the two of you begin to move in together.
Pharah:
Fareeha is anemperor angelfish fish; she’s mostly blue with thin yellow stripes. Her finsare large and wide, taking up a lot of space. They help her when she bursts outof the water and into the air.
Her species offish doesn’t breach. Only certain kinds of merpeople breach the water and leapinto the sky. Fareeha should not want to or breach as well as she does. No oneunderstands it. She refuses to say where she learned how to do it but nothingis more terrifying than having her leap out of the water. Humans are scared.Other mers are scared. She loves it.
She’s very shywhen you show interest in her, hiding herself behind her fins if you surprise her. It’s somethingshe used to do when she was younger when she was nervous. She hasn’t done it inyears. Ana thinks it’s adorable and helps you realize that no, Fareeha doesn’thate you she just doesn’t know what to say to you.
D.Va:
Hana is a purplepuffer fish, her tail not exactly purple but close in certain lighting. Shebegan to dye her tail as she got older, liking the brighter purple and how itstood out. Her fans love her bright colors; for special occasions she’ll dyeher tail a variety of colors.
She doesn’t inflate often but when she doeswatch out. Her needles are poisonous and a quick sting can lead to a painfulway to go. There are only two ways to get her to inflate: scare her or piss heroff. Hana has a high scare tolerance and it’s much easier to piss her off thantry to get her to jump. She tries not to puff out as a general rule, feelingthat it makes her look immature.
Hana loves to showoff her tail when the two of you get together. She’s not the strongest swimmer buther tail can be used as a club to knock others back. If she’s feeling playfulshe’ll let you hang onto the end (away from any needles) and swing you around.She loves to hear you laugh with glee.

Part of my belated Mermay stuff.
(I know Mermay has already been passed to July, BUT I’m almost done. So hang in there).
Here you’ll see a catshark mermaid, with her wild red hair and a bag. 
Some of you would see that she looks like Torlai from “Monster High” because of similar features, especially feline. However, her design was modeled after both Brie from Croquis Cafe and my pal, Vanessa Flores ( @miss-jazz-dafunk ). You can see the similar features, especially the red head. Also, her tail was a mixture of both Chain and Mandarin cat shark. ;)

Took my little guy to the vet for pain in his ear. We are 1 foxtail and $500 lighter. I keep enough emergency money to be able to take care of him but oof. Need to recoup that so I’m prepared for the future.
Would anyone be interested in purchasing my mermay designs as adoptables?
I’m already making new ones every day and they’re just designs for me, not characters; but they could be characters to someone else!
I can also make custom commissioned mermaids for people who want them.
Shamu and I thank you!

chain catshark: $60
hagfish: Listen if you want this woman you can have her
Manta Ray: $40
Black and white Domino, thresher shark, longhorn cowfish: $30
