I was going to try to do a full journal here in one shot using my notes from previous spawns. After thinking on it most of the day, I think it will be fun to do this on a day by day journal. I might even find some new ideas along the way! Some information will be the same for all of my species due to my set up, that is why it is already filled in. Thanks for following!!!!

A. percula 2dph. Sometimes the easiest way to get a shot of the larvae is to put them in a drop of water A. percula 21dph
