Other Information: |
Was not expecting them to hatch at the 6 day mark. Was caught off guard. So setup BRT once i discovered they were hatching, filled w/ water from brood stock system. Moved pot over to BRT. Then proceeded to capture remaining larvae from brood stock tank that had already hatched. Approx. 10 captured from brood stock system. |
