Hello guys so today while was sitting near my tank notice a lot of small guy poping up and chiling at light .. i was thinking maybe these are sally light food crab frys ?!




here is a video!

<div style="width:100%;height:0px;position:relative;padding-bottom:75.000%;"><iframe src="https://streamable.com/s/1voxy/wcihzf" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="100%" allowfullscreen style="width:100%;height:100%;position:absolute;left:0px;top:0px;overflow:hidden;"></iframe></div>

if these are frys what should i feed them !! i have some phytoplankton will they accept that !? and how mutch and how often !?
 
yep, definitely crab zoa.... sally lightfoots you say?
that's a larger crab than i've experience with... definitely try baby brine shrimp and or rotifers as first foods... just a couple mils per gallon of dense phyto. i think all zoa eat phyto.
they're okay in a gallon jar if you've got one. very light aeration....1 bubble per second...whatever temp you had the parents at. don't worry about filtration yet.
what magnification are you using... looks low.... what size in mm do you think they are?
congrats...
