One note on the rotifers... add a sponge filter in their buckets. It does wonders.
Brilliant! Wonder where you learned that?
Hey this is a fantastic thread! Very exciting and informative. I am thrilled by your success, and the answer to the question: Are picasso clowns genetically distinct, or just a lucky misbar. It's genetic! You are going to enjoy watching those fish grow up, and so are we, thanks to your wonderful thread.
We hope to see more of you on MOFIB! MOFIB - Marine Ornamental Fish & Invertebrate Breeders - Marine Fish Breeding / Saltwater Fish Breeding / Marine Invertebrate Breeding

Just got back from three days in Ohio and had to check things out here.
I see things are progressing along very well.
Have you talked to any of the LFS to see if they are interested in purchasing any of the babies?
the LFS won't get that many, the waiting list has 50 clowns reserved!
Thank you! I am glad you're enjoying it Some nights I just want to go to bed after dinner but I won't until this is updated with new pics. Feel free to karma me to keep me going...Wow Doni I see everything is going well so far. I think I speak for all when I say we are dumbfounded and highly appreciative of the work your doing.
Way cool contrast between hatches. What a difference two weeks makes!
Yes, with an airline going. It doesn't seem to deter their population explotionso are you adding a sponge filter with an airline? this would suck the rotifers in and kill them.
Or is the sponge filter just seeded and then tossed in one place?
Doni... I love the sideburns on the spawn #3 babies... and one of them looks like it'll be a killer specimen when all grown up...
They do get sucked in the filter, but they seem to multiply there just as well as they do in the open water. I've been squeezing the sponge out daily in a separate dry bucket, then filtering the rots out of the sponge water, and using the filtered rots for my larvae. The sponge filter goes back into the culture. These rots are not harmed by living in the sponge, and the culture in the bucket, outside of the sponge, is full of rots, too. I remove rots from the water every day, too.
