Well, update isn't very good.

I'm already on batch #2. Batch #1 didn't make it because of the flow in the overflow, and I think they spent all their energy swimming and didn't get enough food.

This time around I used a acrylic floating hatchery in the main tank. There's virtually no flow to minimize their energy expenditure. I've fed rotifers and bbs and as of today, I have 1 survivor! Horrible survival rate I know, but I am actually happy to have 1 guy make it this far. If he makes it past day 7 I will be extremely happy.

I am hoping to have a plankton/rotifer setup in the coming weeks, already have the 2L's and air pump.
