Hi Ilham,
Congrats on the fry, I wish you the best of luck and hope that you begin raising them with consistency. Heck, I'll buy a couple of you when they are at least an inch long... Great job so far and please, keep us posted on the progress.PS. What are you feeding them?

I am feeding them newly-hatched baby brine shrimp at the moment, and starting to wean them to flake foods. Gene, I will try to raise more of course but my main focus is on my gold band maroons. I will give them a shot and see how that goes. It's fun doing this, but many late nights lol! Sad to see when a lot die..at one point..but that is what I have to deal with i guess ![]() I will try to improve my success rates. - Elmo |

Actually, i'd like to feed cyclop-eeze but i do not have any at the moment. They have a nice fat content. Right now rotifers and baby brine shrimp. I'll be happy to ship some when they get bigger. ![]() - Elmo |

I'm not at the safe point yet I guess. I think once they get pass day 20, all should be good.
I lost some today to what I think may be deformed guts, or no gut at all. Some were really skinny like when they were on day 1. I will take more photos tomorrow of the little guys. I'll get a better idea of really how many i have. I'm guessing about 30-40 alive. - Elmo

Thank you everybody. I took a couple photos from Day 17 yesterday. Most now have stripes and some are still fry-like. I am not sure if these runts or smaller ones will change, but I will keep them on smaller foods and see what happens. Thanks again for the encouraging words. The next couple of weeks will be busy...again.. I am sorry if the photos are too big
, I can resize them. - Elmo

Not much change. They are now a month old (Day 30). About 50-60 still alive. Run into a bit of badluck with the maroons....but...stay tuned....
I'll start another post later on. - Elmo
