Ok- guys....sorry I have been bad about popping back here as often as I want. I have been trying to stay on the MBI site, (picking the brains of those that know what they are doing, lol.........Thanks Tal! )

Anyway- Will be transfering the data from my journal there over here, for friendly reading..but I included my link as well. I have been uploading videos on what I am doing, and my progress so far- so you can always find me on www.youtube.com .... just go to the search box and type volitans2007 - that's me

Hope everyone is doing well

Ok- sorry haven't update here as much as I've wanted- have been staying on and reading the MBI site, and have been busy setting up and maintaining new tanks

Today marks Day 9 ----- 1 week + 2 days Post Hatch (whoo hoo )

Larvae are doing well..... last night I counted 16 (out of the original 22 that hatched) so very pleased with this

They are being fed otohime A only at this point, as I have stopped feeding rotifers and ran out of the pyhto. They are doing well on the oto A - and I will be adding powdered flakes to their diet soon, (maybe within a week), in addition to their food.

I am in the process of setting up their growout tank- and will be transferring them when they are maybe at the 1 month mark...to give them time to get a bit bigger.

Stop by the MBI site, check out my journals (have 1 going for the baby picassos too )
and hope you enjoy my progress

Have a great weekend!
