Mike: I have decided to ask you a question on the group rather than
your personal email since I believe others may be interested.
I apologise if this was not prudent and am quite happy to correspond
off group.

Having visited your website last October and followed your Angel
breeding method ( away from the parents ) I am struggling after the
free swimming stage.

On your website you have a gap of actions between day 6 & day 21.

Unfortunately I lose all fry by day 14.

Not wanting to pre- empt any advice but perhaps they are not being
fed correctly. ( I am using Liquifry initially then a little frozen
brine shrimp)

The present batch are in a plastic jar, sat in a 55gall tank (27°C),
with light aeration near the shivering fry attached to the Java fern
leaf, removed earlier from the main tank.

A few have dropped off the leaf and are wiggling on the bottom of the
jar. When I do my water change do
a) I siphon these off.
b) Use water from the 55g which has a sponge filter and an
internal Fluval with protective sponge around the intake.
c) Use treated fresh water.

Sorry for being longwinded but I think I am almost there after 10
months of disappointments.

Thanks in advance
