C. Aeneus was the first egg layer I spawned purposely.
Everything pretty much went according to plan.
The spawns were lower egg count then most say you should get, only about 20-30 for me, however, I only conditioned them for about one week. They all spawned within a few days of each other so I have been able to raise multiple spawns at the same time.
During that time I fed them pretty much as much as they would eat 4 times a day, at least one of those feedings being bloodworm.
Then I did a large cool water change every day. Which caused them to start spawning.
So far the fry are 1.5 weeks old and are doing very well. Has not been much special effort to raise them. The technique I used was rinsing out filter mesh to get as much mulm in the bottom of the fry tank as possible. after 1-2 days of using there egg yolk I let them eat off the mulm for a couple days. Then I started to provide some powered flakes/pellets/whatever else I had + a constant supply of microworms in the water. I have been doing a 20%ish water change every day without vacuuming the bottom. As far as I can tell I have not lost a single fry.
