Good for you FB. I hope you do well with it. Are you trying to supply the entire eastern seaboard with Ocellaris? lol :)

No just all of Canada :D

I don't really know what I'm about to do but we shall see.
 
I had a 98% hatch last night. Figures since I don't have many rotifers to feed them. Again I think my problem was I was pulling them a day early again. I have to stop doing that. I put an entire unfed rotifer culture in the tank with the larvae and what little phyto I had left. The water was clear this morning and most have small silver bellies. So not really sure what is going to happen with them. I may go buy some live rots today.

Just thought I would let everyone know that we had a beautiful baby girl on Monday night. Mother and baby are doing well.

I was away from the last batch of clowns for almost 36 hours. I still have some left but they are very skinny and probably will not make it.

Congrats :beer:

I'll warn you now, after 15 years, my daughter still has me wrapped around her finger :D :lol: You've got a long road ahead of you, enjoy it :)
 
Congrats FB, I hope all is well.
I've got to re-read this thread as I finally have some eggs that I can move to hatch.
Here's a pic of my new system and the eggs,

I need to order a phyto culture and rotofers, what's the best place to do so?
The eggs were laid yesterday, so I've got to get ready before the coming weekend, thanks.

Nice setup Sullyman. You don't have time to get a rotifer culture going. Or phyto for that matter. You could buy instant algae from Reeds. But the rotifers you'll need to find a large quantity from someone local or order some and let this batch of eggs go while you get your cultures going. (start at least 2)
 
Thanks. I ordered some instant algae from Reed and a couple cultures of rotifers, should be here Weds. The eggs were laid Sunday so I may have a chance, we'll see.
I'm thinking I'll have 4 buckets of rotifers going by then.
 
I also want to say, "NICE SETUP"! Do you have a "flow chart" available? I would like to get some ideas. Thanks!
