Good for you !!! Video does not play but you beat the odds. Pearly, spotted and yellowhead most likely to raise their young/frySame baby above...This one is the closest to the front of the tank.
Thanks, but I don't understand. Most likely to raise? Most likely to eat maybe?? I moved them at birth to a different tank if that helps. About 150 of them and we are down to about 15-16 I think.Good for you !!! Video does not play but you beat the odds. Pearly, spotted and yellowhead most likely to raise their young/fry
The three mentioned have high success rates with raising their young/ tank bredThanks, but I don't understand. Most likely to raise? Most likely to eat maybe?? I moved them at birth to a different tank if that helps. About 150 of them and we are down to about 15-16 I think.
any luck on anything frozen yet?Jaw Fish Week 9
Regularly feeding brine shrimp and some copepods. Have another brine shrimp cone coming to keep up..will try and grow some out in a separate container once hatched. Feels like they could use larger ones that are enriched with macro algae. Tank comes alive once I drop in the brine shrimp.
Ammonia levels still non-existent...tank needs the bottom siphoned though. Nice little colony of baby jaw fish.
Ohh and for the observing type, towards the end of the video the JF on the right poops and then eats/spits it out. yummy.
Not yet. I did drop some micro pellets in which a couple caught them, but spit out right away. I need something that stays suspended as they freak out when the turkey baster thingie gets put in....or perhaps I just need to keep doing it to get them accustomed to it.any luck on anything frozen yet?
yeah its so much easier once they start eating prepared. Try dropping some frozen in while feeding live. You can get a few types of enriched brine now. Just add a small amount like an 1/8 of a cube at first. This typically how I got clowns off live feeds. Then slowly started adding thing like flake and pellets. Pellets seem to be the hardest to train them to. Im sure pellets feel so foreign even if it tastes like food.Not yet.

I'll try again...would be nice to get them eating non live. The Brine shrimp are easy, but it's not the way forward, as I'm sure you know.
