Well as promised,here are some pictures of our new babies in there new 5 gal home,these guys bodies are the size of a grain of rice!!!
I hope they all make it,I've got baby brine shrimp going as we speak.

That's really cool, Jason!

jason,
Welcome to the club! Nice idea on the fake urchin! I think I will steal that idea for my next batch. Good luck with the little guys... be sure to watch the ammonia levels in the 5G tank (they can build up fast) and try to feed only as much NHBS as you see them eat in a few mins time, I feed mine several times a day but small amounts and that seemed to work pretty well.

This is great!!!

Keeping my fingers crossed that all goes well.

Thanks Bob,I figured I'd do a small water change every day or two,and BTW that epoxy,ty-wrap urchin is patented and can not be reproduced in any form what so ever!!!But for $19.99 I'll sent you one with a free "SHAM-WOW" if you order in the next 10 minutes,operaters are standing by!!!jason,

Not a good idea to start the kids out on cable ties. Soon they'll be yelling for bungie cords and then before you know it, they'll want the state of the art tie-downs from Grainger. You're asking for trouble when you spoil those young'uns!!

HAHAHAHAHAHA...nice. Congrats on the fry...they are too cute! I have 1 BC and he always hangs around my squammy because of its striped pattern...he's prolly so confused, lol.

Now thats cool Jason! First time Ive seen these captive bred!
Means the tank and critters are very happy too.

Good Show!

Dang! I didn't see this fast enough and now I won't be able to get the free "SHAM-WOW" :sad:

I woke this morning and feed the newly hatched baby brine to my babies and there eating like crazy!!!!
Oh,and sorry you missed the SHAM WOW Bob.

I'm in love with the baby Bangais! :yes:

Love the babies and the urchin is great. Good luck with them

Any updates???

That is awesome Jason.

Well Bob there doing fine as far as I can tell.There all still alive and eating the baby brine as soon as I put it in.
I thought I was going to lose them last night with the power outage,but my computer UPS kept them going.Any updates???

Sweet! That's great man. Hopefully they will continue to do well.
Z

they are so cute!

excellent. they do look cool.

I'd be glad to help a neighbor out and take them off your hands when they get a little too big to handle. :D

Will I hate to say it but I have lost 6 of my 11 Babbie's.Apparently they got too close to the filter intake and were sucked into it.
I have put a piece of sponge around it so they can't get to it any longer and they remaining 5 seem to be fine.

Bummer dude! I use wedding veil wrapped around the intake to keep them out. Sponge would work as well but may clog faster. Good luck with the remaining ones! Z
