Welcome to Gaia! ::

Thats amazing. any updates?

Good camera Btw.

Wow they grew quite a bit!
Hmm, I used to give my baby angelfish some paste-like fishfood from a tube. I forgot the name but it came from the brand Tetramin.
With my guppies I just fed them hardboiled eggyolk and and peas in the first month and gradually went over to flakefood.
I've always been horrible with brineshrimp, so my fish have to make due with dead food, and the occasional bloodworm.

I don't think they are that slow in growing. guppies take about half a year with me to reach full maturity, and I wouldn't call them long livers. Though they do live longer then Kilifish. Maybe they need a bigger bowl? Or more sunlight and current?

This kind of fish doesn't like to have very much current but they probably could use a bigger container. I've heard that with many kinds of fish, including these, those babies that mature quicker will stunt the growth of the ones that don't mature as fast. ^^' They release some kind of hormone. Having more water would probably help with that. I've got a five gallon waiting for them and I probably might as well move them over to it once I clean up the muck of the plant that died in it.

And thanks, -part time ninja-. They're doing well. They seem to be pretty robust.

Ohh... Hey. They're eating some crushed-up flakes now, actually. I guess they just needed to be hungry enough. I hadn't restocked my brine shrimp cup recently so they didn't get too much to eat today.

lol Oh yes. I had those when I was a kid and I failed too. I never even saw anything look like it hatched. Too bad too, since triops are pretty cute when they get bigger.

(Edit: As for killies, that is.) Most sellers seem to have a guarantee that at least some your eggs will at least hatch, but nothing to say they will survive.

If I had adult fish I would probably be able to offer you some eggs. Heck. Maybe in a few months I might be able to. They're actually supposed to spawn pretty readily.
