Well, at the end of day 3 things don't look good. Granted, it IS late in the evening, well past the normal "bed time". A few larvae were casually DRIFTING (aka. "Free Floating") through the water column, while the rest are on the bottom, not really moving. They're definitely still ALIVE but not very active.
In the event that they exhausted the food supply, I added more of "everything" this evening from all 4 types of Phyto I have in culture + more Rotifers AND I harvested from one of our "Tiggerpod" cultures - mostly rotifers but there may be some copepod nauplii stages mixed in.
Hopefully the larvae just "went to bed" early...I guess we'll find out in the morning.
