If so, collect some water with the eggs and swirl to mix. The male may be misdirecting and needs to get the sperm closer to the egg target.

I did feed Parvo, and S rotifers enriched with T. Iso as first foods, also the prolarvae were not fed until day 3 post hatch which was on the 24th of November, not unless i'm messing up my numbers which could also be a thing.   I'm going to try to get some updated pics posted of the little guys.  <message edited by Surfzone on Monday, December 10, 2018 9:10 PM> ---Kevin---   #19 Surfzone Total Posts : 34 Reward points : 102 Joined: 9/11/2018 Location: Marrysville, CA, US Status: offline MBI: 0 Pnts MBI Site: Marine Aquarium Societies of North America Re:Breeding Journal, Species: Synchiropus picturatus Monday, December 10, 2018 9:06 PM (permalink) From tonight ---Kevin---   #20 Online Bookmarks Sharing: Facebook Digg Google del.icio.us StumbleUpon Change Page: 12 > | Showing page 1 of 2, messages 1 to 20 of 29 - powered by ASPPlayground.NET Forum Trial Version
