Looked in the tank with a flashlight during a power outage and saw lots of baby fish!

Here's the latest "nest"

None make it. I really don't know how to extract them. I was thinking of setting up a fake "long spine sea urchin" with a light source and a phyto/baby pod feeding tube... trying to emulate the safe environment they would seek out in nature.

They are a cute couple

Also seeing a lot more babies overall in the tank. I think the heavy feeding puts my big shrimp into baby-mode too? These could be baby fry, but I think they're shrimp.

So hard to focus on such tiny things. I can't find an attachment to my iPhone to focus what's behind the glass 3/4" away and magnify it... Any ideas?
