Thanks guys it was hard to go to work today hate to have a baby maroon clown crash. Started the baby brine shrimp yesterday so we will see what I got tonight. I did get some of that stuff That Dman was talking about they sell it in a 6 ounce container now so I thought I would try it. Crossing fingers and knocking on all the wood I can find.

I bought them a play anemone toy and a sponge filter would that be ok to put in there too? And I was wondering can I take the black plastic off the sides of the tank yet? As you can see I am a LITTLE fired up. And thanks again Kathy and all the rest of you for helping me get this far.
Mike, well done! Good luck with those babies. I hope they make it.
I am going to try my first attemp on raising percula clown fries.
I think the eggs should hatch either tonight or tomorrow.
I got my rots culture going & have tons of rots right now.
1 curiousity question I have, what happen if I don't cover my hatching tank with dark cover & leave it clear/see through?

Bidadari thanks. It seems that they have a harder time seeing there food. I would just do it and experiment later if you want. It just sucks to blow your first time, second time, and third time. :lol:
And you TOO ED Thanks. Yep that was me but this topic is way interesting. I think I will go down and try and photo shock them a little. :bounce1: :bounce3: :bounce2: :beer:

Way to go Mike! I've been absent lately, and look what you did while I was gone, we told you it was a matter of time! AWESOME!
I'm starting up agin now too, after a short break to "fix" some things. Kathy, my Phyto is growing again
Congratulations, persistence pays off, doesn't it! I'm super happy for you, and I'm certain you are glued to the tank all waking hours like I was. Kathy said it, just feed them well, keep the tank clean, and watch them grow!

Just tore it all down, bleached everything overnight, mixed new water with new salt and bleach, and used new de-chlor. I only started three 2 liters and all are looking great, one will be usable tomorrow.
My hypothesis is that I had turned the air off a time or two, and that let growing phyto go back up into the rigid airline, which eventually grew bacteria after the air was back on. I was wiping the outside of the airline with bleach everytime, but when I took it all apart, there was yellow gunk growing on the inside of the rigid tubes. My guess is that I was practically blowing bacteria into my cultures....that won't happen again! Thanks for all the advice. Still have 25 from batch 2 looking good, all have all their stripes now and are starting to get yellow in their fins and orange on their bodies. Little pigs!
Next set should be a winner...I hope
