Thanks. It's amazing to see how fast they swim now compare to a couple days ago. They even started to chase each other around.

They were eating live rotifers until they were 8 days old, then I started them on baby brine shrimp. They're still eating bbs up till now.

There are 17 of them right now. It wasn't a lot of eggs in the first place (first time my clown pair laid eggs again after 6+ mo.), and there were a couple that died at the night of the hatch. I lost about 2-3 between day 1-3, but no losses after that.

Thanks! Here they are on day 15. They are busy "playing" most of the time now. They chase each other and go around in circular pattern with one another

They are so cute. I've thought about trying, haven't braved it yet. My percs aren't laying yet, but the ocellaris are, and they seem to be laying a larger clutch everytime.

I'm lucky to be able to get rotifers from someone local here to start my culture
