Day 3 - 02 Nov 06
Well, I don't belive it but there were no casaulties in the morning.
I did another 30 percent WC in the morning and placed a cup of rotifers in the tank at 4 am and at 7 am before going off to work.
I am also putting a fair amount of Prime in the water everytime I do a WC so to help control the ammonia and nitrites and will be doing an approx. 30 % WC twice a day. I am going to continually test to ensure that the levels of ammonia and nitrites stay low.
I am continuing to do water changes directly from the main seahorse tank and will be doing approximately a 30 % WC twice a day. I am going to continually test to ensure that the levels of ammonia and nitrites stay low.
I don't know if this is the right thing to do.
However, I feel that the main tank will be able to process the waste in the water and the Babies won't be shocked by putting freshly made water into their tank.
I am able to see lots of rotifers swimming around in the bowl, which is perfect.
Simply put, if the water is good and the food is there, I may actually be able to keep some of these guys alive.
Please once again, any suggestions will gladly be accepted. Just dont' be upset if I don't implement them. This is will be one of many to come batches of babies and I am trying to come up with ways to maximize the outcome.
any comments or questions so far?
Neal
