For a successful rearing, you need two things: small food and an urchin. Artemia will do for food although you'll need to gutload them. The best urchin to use is a long spine (diadema sp.). Or, if you don't want an urchin, you can use a surrogate (DIY urchin) made of a ball of epoxy putty with popsicle sticks or BBQ skewers stuck into it to simulate urchin spines. banggai larvae associate with urchins for protection
