SRC Member MOssrope Posted December 8, 2009 SRC Member Share Posted December 8, 2009 You must have a large gallery to have so many breeding activities on going. And to enable them to breed is really an achievement. Poseidon's right hand man! Hope i can view your gallery one day! hehe Quote Brown SPS > Kinder Surprise White SPS = Kinder Surprise after expiry date Assumption killed the dinosaurs, they didnt have test kits.

jackywongto Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 15 days & still on rotifers, estimate only 20+ larvae left. I just need 1 to become a fish! All the best Fuel. Hope you succeed. It will be yet another tremendous achievement. "Jia you!"

Any clue on what could be the reason for such high mortality? Feed or water quality? Dun give up, bro.

Cheers JC Basically the bigger your rearing vessel for larvae, the better results you get. Commonly used tank sizes for larvae in places like ORA are at least 3-4 feet in diameter. I do not have the luxury of such space, I am forced to work with IKEA black trash bins which hold less than 5 gallons. Due to very very limited space, I am forced to work with only 1-2 species at a time. This is why I am not working on peppermint shrimp already. I'm currently trying out arrow crab & harlequin shrimp larvae.
