Hey all,
I just had my upper wisdom teeth pulled today, so if I say anything weird, it is the drugs!
I had to get online for an exciting update:
The adults eat another species of aiptasia different from the first aiptasia tested:
Here they are feasting. This aiptasia was larger than the large adult when expanded, but it only took the 2 adults 1 hour and 15 minutes to eat it:
I have begun filtering the water used for hatching the eggs(to eliminate predators) and when I was transfering the latest batch of eggs over, I accidentially induced a hatching. I've attached a picture at 4x magnification. I'm slightly optomistic as the newly hatched babies were visible to the naked eye and I have smaller aiptasia for them to feed on now. At least I know the eggs are viable now as they were moving around in the water. Each little white dot is a baby nudibranch.
