| Other Information: |
I finally managed to get a group of these guys to 60 days post settlement.
For some reason, with previous batches they would start to die at about 30ish days post hatch so I sort of gave up on the pair.
However they continued to breed well and I thought I would have another go.
There are six in this batch remaining, as I had a bit of an issue part way through with unplugging the heater for about a week and these were the only ones that made it through (28 hatched, 3 died within 48 hours, 19 died with heater problem at day 40). |
