Day 11 most have the first white strip they look and swim like fish now but still really small. i can start to tell them apart well some of them

Twizted1 · « **Reply #61 on:** March 11, 2014, 23:33:47 »

Wow, what a change. They are starting to look like clown fish.

airedalepups · « **Reply #62 on:** March 12, 2014, 07:28:06 »

Awesome - they are coming along nicely!

itsalifestyle · « **Reply #63 on:** March 12, 2014, 14:51:32 »

went home at lunch and a few are starting there second white strip

itsalifestyle · « **Reply #64 on:** March 12, 2014, 22:04:31 »

Day 12 a few are getting there second white strip still feeding flake food and baby brine

Question ? What does everyone think about moving them to a 5 gal so I can put Fridays hatch in 2 1/2 gal or just buy another 2 1/2 for the new ones? I'm worried about stress or hurting them ?

Steve · « **Reply #65 on:** March 12, 2014, 22:22:16 »

Nice job. Would love to be able to do that just for the experience.

itsalifestyle · « **Reply #66 on:** March 12, 2014, 22:38:05 »

Thanks Steve the only reason we wanted to do it was for the experience and it's one worth doing but lots of work but we really are enjoying it

Carly looked at the pic.... her love of little tiny things mixed with the photo... dude, you could have killed her.

itsalifestyle · « **Reply #68 on:** March 12, 2014, 22:57:00 »

Ha ha well glad she liked

Blazinreef · « **Reply #69 on:** March 13, 2014, 10:16:30 »

a new 2 1/2 is pretty cheap. if you have the space may not hurt to just do that. the last thing you want to do is stress them out more.

itsalifestyle · « **Reply #70 on:** March 13, 2014, 13:06:28 »

I've made my mind up I think I'm stickng with what works for me so far I agree with u it not worth the chance there staying in 2 1/2 for atleast another week or two maybe even longer thanks I am going to add sponge filter somtime next week and just keep doing large water changes i

itsalifestyle · « **Reply #71 on:** March 13, 2014, 21:45:37 »

Day 13 not much change really so I'm going to share the fry trap I used to collect the fry which I will use I hope tomorrow night again for round 2. so to explain the traps what happen is the airline is to start a siphon the pen light shine to bottom which fry are attracted to once under ther PVC they get sucked into trap around to the pop bottle where they are safe from other fish till I get to siphon them out with airline tubing the screen in the front of bottle is to let the water out of trap so it doesn't flood or let fry out the top zip ties are for nothing more then to hold it in place on the center brace

Twizted1 · « **Reply #72 on:** March 13, 2014, 22:51:20 »

That's cool. Thanks for sharing. Did you make it?

itsalifestyle · « **Reply #73 on:** March 13, 2014, 22:57:03 »
