Saltfishlover Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Has anyone tried or had any success in raising this fish's fry? I've been trying but they die the same day they hatched. I'm doing the same as clown fry, as I can't find munch information about this on line. Thought I would check here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eatfrenchfries Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 You would need S-type rotifers instead of L type. S-type is sometimes referred to as SS (super small) rotifers. They are raised similiar to L with the main difference being the temperatures they reproduce at. Damsel fry mouth is a different size than clowns so the microns required for each stage vary. Paramecium or organisms that contaminate infusoria would be an ideal size as well to get them past the first few days. Parvocalanus naupli would be useful since the instars match with the micron upsize. Clowns would get by with parvocalanus, L type rotifers, and fresh baby brine, tdo pellets. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
