One of my Banggai cardinals was not eating for a bout a month I suspected he might have baby in his mouth, today start eating and looked around aquarium and found just one baby stuck in prefilter :

So cool! I have never saw the baby from Banggai Cardinal in a tank before. Definitely neat.

Thanks, but I have no idea how to keep it alive in that little container and I have no other choice

He will eat newly hatched brine shrimp and/or REEF NUTRITION TIGGER-PODS from J&L.

You need to feed him quickly or he will die.

You need to keep enough in the water so that he can easily catch them. Change some of the water every day with water from your tank. Put in an airstone

They grow pretty quickly.

The males will usually carry a dozen or more in their mouth. Once he spits them out he will try to eat them if they cannot get away. You may have others hiding in your tank.

it is in feeding container , I put mesh on top of the opening and put sands over it so the water could flow in and out so I dont think I need to worry about changing water on that container , I do 25% water change twice a week. I'll go get tiger pods from J&L .
