CT_ Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 (edited) I'm starting a new thread here because the original title stopped making sense. For those of you not familiar with my old thread, I had about 50 medaka juveniles in a 3g bin with 2g of water in it, and needed to move them into a bigger grow out tub. The 2g tub was actually really easy because it was by my desk. I just started a siphon when ever i remembered and let it drain into a tupperware until the levels evened off between the two containers (set and forget). Likewise I just siphoned a gallon pitcher back into the tub, also set and forget. water changing this is going to be a bit harder since I don't have a close water source and it'll probably be 5g at a time. Here's the overview photo. I've got some dirted pots I'm going to let settle in before I introduce them too. I triggered the feeder to get them to come up to the surface. I started feeding them green water and then sera micron for the first week. then bbs for a week or two and now I've switched to the coop fry food which is amazing for fish this size and i think should work well up to adults. They don't have much color yet but these are "koi" medaka. The parents look a whole lot like what I've seen "red cap" or "orange cap", so maybe its just fancy marketing. This is 2-3 days of spawns from 2 females. About 5-10% of the eggs were not viable and I had the one loss, probably my fault, mentioned above. These guys, including their parents also seem to be better eaters than my pearl galaxy's which is a relief.

Streetwise Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 @CT_, @CalmedByFish, it looks like those images are hosted by Google Photos or Drive, but are not publicly-accessible. When I right-click and open in a new tab, it prompts me to sign-in to Google. You may need to change the sharing settings for the album or folder. Alternatively, you can upload them here. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Streetwise Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 @CT_, it must have copied and pasted links rather than images. I’m glad you got everything to show! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m glad you got everything to show! I think its more complicated than that because they came out as links but if i try and edit them there is no url associated. I think it has something to do with how the forum processes rich text. I'm often able to paste images/screenshots from the paste buffer, but this time i was pasting text and images.
