Treatment Summary:Samples were collected from a total of 12 wild small-spotted catsharks from the Mediterranean Sea and 7 aquarium-housed small-spotted catsharks in collaboration with Oceanogràfic of Valencia. Location (wild vs. aquarium). Wild individuals were donated from local fisheries at the Valencian Community and were part of accidental captures intended to commercial fisheries ports at Valencia (39°26′45″N 0°19′12″O), Jávea (38°47′21″N 0°09′47″E) and Cullera port (39°09′58″N 0°15′10″O). Mediterranean Sea water parameters, measured by Valencia buoy (39º52′N0º20′E) were 14.6-19 °C temperature and 34-37 g/l salinity (http://www.puertos.es/es-es/oceanografia/Paginas/portus.aspx). Small-spotted catsharks under managed care were housed at Oceanogràfic of Valencia, Spain, in closed and recirculation system under controlled conditions, monitored water quality (17–21°C, 5.1 mg/l oxygen, 36 g/l salinity and 7.6–8.2 pH), fixed photoperiod (12:12 h) and disinfection using UV light and ozone.
