11 days old today, only 2 or 3 more days untill they start to hitch (larvae settle out of the water column).
They are growing fast and have allready doubled in size now at 1/2" long. ------------- Shaun American Fork "Would you leave a dead cat in your kitchen till tommorow?" Builderofdreams |

Thats awesome man. What was your hatch rate vs. survival rate? |
Posted By: sabeypets
Date Posted: December 17 2014 at 1:47pm
Better than the Ocean !! But still extremely poor .
About 800 hatched 750 Died in the first 6 days Only 1 has died in the last 7 days I have 14 left at week 3. I raised them on newly hatched brine shrimp, expecting a poor survial rate. Next go around I will have Parvocalanus crassirostris ( a small calanoid copepod) and expect a lot better survial rate! ------------- Shaun American Fork "Would you leave a dead cat in your kitchen till tommorow?"

Shaun, how are you so awesome? Definitely need to take a trip to AF to grab some of your kids. I wonder if you can talk to sustainable aquatics and become a supplier for them?..... ------------- 125g 90g 2x33g 34g What stores do I recommend?
