Pete,
I just want to let you know, I’m at the 12 week mark and still have them all. What a miracle.They are eating frozen PE mysis. I mix it up with biocapupsulated vitamin mysis from Hakari. They also get enriched brine shrimp( adult size) as their treat. They are all different colors, yellow, peach, orange, reddish orange, brown and 1 black one. What a color scheme I have going. My 9-weekers are also doing great but when i moved them to the new tank they all turned brown on me and stayed that color since the move. I guess that was pretty dramatic for them. Pete, I was wondering how old do they have to be to maybe put some of them in my main tank? I would really like to. I know they have to be able to handle the flow. Also when feeding the PE mysis to them, how many should I allow them to eat. They are really nuts for it. They actually pull it out of each other’s snout. They really produce a lot of smoke. Which in turn causing that oily film in the tank. With the 29-gallon it can change my water quallity quickly. But I’m sure it is better for them to eat these. I do try to rinse well but in turn I don’t want to ruin the quallity of the mysis either and making it mush. Any suggestions would be great.
