I'm still trying my luck trying to raise these guys but just wanted to share this pic...trying to focus on a fish the size of a pin head while its swimming around is a pain!

Only with my first batch have they survived metamorphosis and that was like 3 months ago but then when I went to switch that batch from rotifers to other food, the food was rancid and killed them =(   

but the parrents have been laying eggs every two weeks sense If you wanted to start a phyto/rotifer culture Id give you some larvae to try when they hatch again... trying to get some success rate eventually even if its not at my house

Do these guys go though metamorphosis about the same time as Oscar fish for fw?

I'd have to go look it up to be sure but M occurs at about day 7-9 and it's extremely hard on them.

Nick those are the coolest pics of larvae I've ever seen. Especially the one looking at the Copepod for lunch. Thanks for sharing. Are these Amphiprion Ocellaris?

I just had a breeding pair of Oscars back when i FW. One was an albino tiger stripe long fin the other was a tiger stripe long fin, that was the female. They M about 8-12 days, atleast with my experience.
