just keep adding live brine and if you can rotifers. I also fed them arctic pods which they gobbled up. My adults eat anything and I have noticed them actually eating flake. Yes flake food, the babies in the sump eat flake and anything that gets down from the main.

Thanks Lorna, I just bought some Zoecon to soak the BBS in (was using Vita-Chem) so hopefully they will be getting enough nutrition.

Thanks everyone! We have had NO casualties in the past 48 hours!! But the real test will be how many I have this time next week. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Boy am I a few days late to the party........

Congrats on the babies! They are so cute

Good luck with them

The babies are one week old today (well, from when the father spit them out). No new deaths to report, but I know we are approaching that critical 10 day period. Meaning if they havn't been getting enough nutrition from me with the feedings then this is about when they start dropping like flies. Let's hope I don't lose to many.

Anyway, here are some more pics that I took today. The last picture turned out so good I just had to share it right away!!! (It was a further away picture and I just cropped.)

And here is a video of my little fry!!!
