Your annuals look very brightly colored. I do feed them live foods early on, yes. (1) Vinegar eels (2) Micro Worms (3) Walter Worms (4) Banana Worms (5) Baby Brine Shrimp. But they graduate to frozen foods (Daphnia, Brine Shrimp, etc.) and some daily flake foods too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fish Folk Posted April 22, 2023 Author Share Posted April 22, 2023 It’s BAP submission day for my Nothobranchius rachovii. Lost a few batches along the way. These are tricky to get right! Water parameters are very caustic, given the peat, diet, water change schedule, etc. At 6.0 pH, Ammonia is Ammonium. Going forward, I am eager to try other hatching methods. But for now, the large Sterilite containers worked _Ok_. The most satisfying thing is seeing how results from an earlier hatch are maturing… 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some very difficult fish that can be exceptions. Edited April 22, 2023 by Fish Folk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fish Folk Posted May 21, 2023 Author Share Posted May 21, 2023 Just took his photo… I have more growing out… If you cannot bear to go through aquatics without trying these, send me a private message on the forum. Killis are a niche worth exploring! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
