Awesome thread!!! My two Percs just laid eggs today on a small piece of rock by their RBTA. Snow day here in Arkansas so I watched them all day while searching about how to keep them alive. I plan on letting this batch go because don't have any rotifers or anything ready except extra tank. I will try the second batch (crossing my fingers) and try to be ready.
Will you tell me the feeding schedule you started with? And how you kept your rotifers?
Congrats to on the new plats!! they look awesome and I'm sure you bout to make some $$$
Thanks very helpful! I'll probably pass on this 1st time but its so exciting that I kinda wanted try but I know there will be more hopefully.
Say I order from Reeds(1 million rotifers and RGcomplete) today and it gets here in two days. Will I have plenty of rotifers to start and culture and feed my clowns once they hatch in about 5 days? I have studied on how to make a culture and how to take about 33% out a day but just wondering. I already have a 10 gallon spare tank, bucket for rotifers, 2 heaters and air stones/pump.
Last question is when you feed them rotifers do you pour the green water and rotifers in the fry tank or just filter out the rotifers and throw the green water out?

When you take rotifers out everyday, do you replace the water you take out of the bucket with your DT water or clean saltwater thats already mixed?
Awesome video and beautiful set up. Those two pairs of clowns you have are awesome. Learned so much from this thread man and I'm ready to start trying. Hows the new batch coming along?
I was going to ask you about that tint. Do you have to put that up or do you just doing so nothing will really bother them? And at least you still have ten tho mine are day three and expected to hatch Sunday night but I don't have anything set up yet so I'm going to let this batch go. I'm about to order the reeds starter pack and some chroma boost A and get ready for second batch. Hopefully they'll get it on again so I can try. How long have yours been laying eggs and have they been at it non-stop like laying them every couple weeks?
I try and get a pic tmrw after i get home but its really hard to see cause the eggs are on the back side of the rock and below a RBTA. And I'll try and feed them more so they can stay fat and stay off those eggs

I really appreciate that but I have to get all the rotifer food, chroma boost , and floss too so I might as well just get rotifers there too! Thanks a lot though. Did you feed chroma boost after rotifers or did u get them on brine shrimp?.... Now if your gonna send me one of those famous tank raised plats then yes I will take some rotifers haha ��
Haha I think I'm gonna try them on that TDO chroma boost A after rotifers! At least try it. My first batch is getting darker and bout ready to hatch in the next couple of days. So ready for my new batch so I can test this out
