Hey there....
Heres the story...
Ok, I have two False Percula Clown fish and they have been biting and eating the rock in this cave near the hammer coral and I called a friend and did research and they both had said that they were going to have babes! I was very excited and couldn't wait until they came out... well the same night right after the lights went out, the fish laid eggs, tiny little orange eggs, and the male was protecting them from my other fish in the tank, yellow tang and blue damsel, and when they hatch in 4 days I need help with figuring out what to do with them! I heard that you feed them Rotifers and I have found them online and havnt order them yet but will soon... My plan is to take the yellow tang and damsel into a nano tank that has already been setup for 1 year now but hasnt had any life in it but the water is fine so im going to put them into there while the fish hatch so the Babes arnt eaten.... and after the fish hatch I will capture them and put them into a 20 gallon tank which will have the water from the main, 46 gl tank, from water changes... so when they are all in the 20 gl I will feed them Rotifers 5 times a day and let them do their thing for getting older... after metamorphosis they will be home free and so will I! What my questions are is... how much amount of Rotifers do I feed them 5 times a day? Another question is are my steps going to work okay for all the fish and corals I have? And will this work out for the baby Perculas? Is anything in the process incorrect???
Thanks
