Default clown fry on just baby brine?

So my false percs have been laying eggs for a while now and I wanted to raise a couple. I have access to rotifers but havnt been able to make it out to pick them up yet. I figure soon here I will get a culture going and give it a go... But untill then, I pulled a batch of eggs and put then in a tank with baby brine. I water change regularly and add new brine daily as well as add crushed up pellets. Is day four now and there are still at least 50 fish still swimming around that look to be eating. Any body have any experience like this? Any body think any will make it? Anybody with any tips? Im actually surprised that there are still so many looking so good.

Good luck keep us updated.

I would try to aquire a copy of "Clownfishes: A Guide to their captive care, breeding and natural history" by Joyce D. Wilkerson.
It is an indespensable guide in the breeding and raising of these wonderful little fishes. It will save you a lot of headaches and lost fry.
Then the challenge becomes what to do with all those fishes
