OK, this one is going to blow your mind. It's 12:25. This picture is a Mandarin larvae approximately 25 hours after spawning.
OK, so first things first, although I can't actually SEE any EYES, I can say that apparently their SENSES (lateral line?) are working...they swim away rather quickly when I put the pipette in to suck one out. Took about 5 minutes to gently get one for photographing.
To the naked eye under ambient light they're barely noticeable. When I take the flashlight to them, they appear a light transluscent olive green (of course you lose this when viewing them with such strong backlighting in the photograph). Anyway, WOW.
