# Hatched |
Maybe a hundred or so? |
# Not Hatched |
Very few. I did see what appeared to be a few eggs |
Larvae Size |
Approx 2mm |
First Food: |
Plan is to add live parvocalanus and a whiff of t-iso when mouth & gut parts can be identified. Based on readings from other pigmy angel info, this may be 2-4 days post hatch. |
Larvae Description:
( Do larvae have eyes, mouth, gut, attracted to light, etc?) |
Prolarvae, tiny 2mm, mostly clear with a speckled stripe dorsally on body, and a speckled spherical structure near vent region (remnants of oil droplet?). No eyes, mouth, fins. Simply float in the container near the surface, and occasionally twitch their little tail. No phototropism noted. |
