Day 14
My 5 little clowns are 14 days old! They all are eating well and lookin somewhat like real clownfish. At least they are swimming like it as they get used to their new shapped little bodies they are "wobble swimming" versus darting about like the larvae that they were. Still eathing bbs and
As for my new batch, I was using the drop by drop method that I learned from Clownfish Sushi, until I had to siphon out as many dead little guys as I did using the method I did the first time. I turned the airline tubing off to try to contain as many rots in the water as possible. I am not quite sure why I am losing so many in the first couple of days the only thing I can conclude is that they may be "thin larvae" and are not as strong. This is only my clownfishes 3rd viable clutch.that hasnt been eaten so that may be the answer. Lights remain dim over the tank, walls are blacked out temp is 80F air stone is bubbling, plenty of lively rotifers in the tank with guts filled with nanno.
