I'm trying to breed Blue Rams.
I have them in their own 20L... with some plants...
They spawned twice with tan eggs, but after a day, they started eating them. I treated the tank with a treatment to keep fungus from the eggs....
Their third attempt, I removed the rock they spawns on, and placed it in a 10g with water from the parents tank.
I added a sponge filter, and airstone(near the rock) and 1ml of hygrogen peroxide per gallon every 12 hours.

The eggs fungused.. I had thought it was a failure, but when I removed the rock, I saw a wiggler. I see at LEAST 4 of these in the tank. they look like a little egg witha whip like tale moving on the bottom(no sunstrate) aimlessly. Apparently, it was not a total loss.

What are my odds of going on from here? The breeder I got them from said that he uses a hard boiled egg yolk mixture...

I keep reading about wiggler, that they go free swimming, and at THIS time, you start feeding them. But I never hear much about the wiggler stage...

What is normal in this stage? When and if they go free swimming, I assume that I'll know... right?

Any special care at this stage? Water changes? Etc?
