It's been about a month now since most of these Amanos have been in freshwater, some of the smaller ones are from a latter spawn...

They are now 310 in number and are feeding on boiled lettuce (as in the pic), boiled dandy lion leaves and crushed crab cuisine pellets.

Heres a movie of them feeding...

That is really great, zax.

I have had my amanos for just a couple weeks now, but it does look like I have one female beginning to develop eggs in her ovaries.

Maybe you could share your technique for raising the zoea/larvae?
