I moved my larvae 2 nights ago to larvae tank. I used a 10 gallon with 4 gallons of parent tank water. I used a heater and a rigid airline (my air stone broke and couldn't get a new one.) i used a the bowl method and siphoned them out. I had a 18 inch 15w florescent light that i think was too bright. I switched to clamp on lamp 13w equivalent to 60w compact florescent bulb. (switching to 15w incandescent) i put 1 1/2 quarts of rotifers as it was a small nest. Here might be the problem i put 8-10 drop of rg complete. I checked my ammonia and as of today is .25ppm. I have trouble gauging amount (first rot culture crashed because of over feeding). As of now i only have 1 clownfish larvae left. He is hanging by the sides for some reason.
My broodstock diet includes: mysis, nls pellets, lrs fish frenzy, reef plankton, mosquito larvae.
This was their 3 over all clutch. They are ocellaris clowfish.
Should i use fresh saltwater?
Pls help. Past stories help, advice, common mistakes etc.
I think problem was water pollution and poor aeration that leaded to suffocation. Does this sound right?
