Well one antenna cause the other must have come off during the molt.  This guy appears to be the furthest along at about 0.9 cm long!   I can't even take the measurement pic under my microscope cause they are getting too big!           #24 altolamprologus Total Posts : 15 Reward points : 91 Joined: 3/11/2013 Location: Fremont, CA, US Status: offline MBI: 5 Pnts MBI Site: Marine Breeding Initiative (MBI) Re: Breeding Journal, Species: Stenopus tenuirostris Friday, May 3, 2013 12:21 AM (permalink) They're looking so good!

If you know approximately when the hatch is coming you can prehatch and store in the fridge for a potentially several days...I don't hatch BBS every day in my basement, no sir.   I should try that although I DO have two hatcheries which alternate days so I USUALLY have fresh bbs every day no matter what.  Sometimes I forget to start a culture once in a while though.   #29 Bongo Shrimp Total Posts : 231 Reward points : 425 Joined: 12/14/2009 Location: West Bloomfield Status: offline MBI: 1070 Pnts MBI Site: MarineLife Aquarium Society of Michigan Re: Breeding Journal, Species: Stenopus tenuirostris Monday, May 20, 2013 6:14 PM (permalink) Day 50.  Still don't want to risk hurting the remaining three by trying to remove them to take pics.  I might try to get pics with my DSLR but with them spinning around in the kreisel it makes it a bit difficult.  One is bigger, one is smaller, and one is in-between in terms of size.  The biggest one seemed to have molted yesterday and looked like he was eating his molt.  I have been doing daily water changes and of course feedings and the bbs density is always much more sparse by every night.  I know some of the bbs are dying because I suck out the build up of "dirt" in the kreisel every day but they have to be eating them too.   #30 Bongo Shrimp Total Posts : 231 Reward points : 425 Joined: 12/14/2009 Location: West Bloomfield Status: offline MBI: 1070 Pnts MBI Site: MarineLife Aquarium Society of Michigan Re: Breeding Journal, Species: Stenopus tenuirostris Thursday, May 23, 2013 12:16 AM (permalink) Only one left. :/   #31 Umm_fish?

Sorry to hear. Keep at it, though. It's good that you have a new direction in mind for the next run. --Andy, the bucket man.

I know I can do it if I got them that far already.   #38 Bongo Shrimp Total Posts : 231 Reward points : 425 Joined: 12/14/2009 Location: West Bloomfield Status: offline MBI: 1070 Pnts MBI Site: MarineLife Aquarium Society of Michigan Re: Breeding Journal, Species: Stenopus tenuirostris Thursday, June 27, 2013 12:04 AM (permalink) New hatch! 6/26/2013 11:30 PM. I was ready this time. They are in a kreisel with bbs newly hatched and I have three hatcheries alternating days so I will ALWAYS have fresh bbs everyday with leftovers from another hatchery if one somehow fails. Also I will be doing 2+ water changes per day with fresh SW instead of tank water. It's happening this time! If I got to 53 days last time with all my stupid mishaps, I know I can do it this time. Plus I have altolamprologus' help this time.   #39 Online Bookmarks Sharing: Facebook Digg Google del.icio.us StumbleUpon Change Page: < 12 | Showing page 2 of 2, messages 21 to 39 of 39 - powered by ASPPlayground.NET Forum Trial Version
