judyok Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 I decided to give it a shot and raise some Amano larvae. They are about 2 weeks in marine water with a specific gravity of about 1.022 kind of in the middle of the ideal range of a hydrometer. I have been feeding them once a day with Kent Phytoplex and some are considerably larger now, but some are still quite small. I heard that they mature at differents rate. My question is what to graduate the larger larvae up to as far as food? I was thinking of mixing Spirulina powder with NLS fry food which is also a powder. Anybody raise these up that can tell me what they are eating as they grow? Edwardnah and Johnnydok 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judyok Posted June 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 What is micro algae exactly? Are we talking about diatoms? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judyok Posted June 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 Okay I looked it up and it is a phytoplankton. How often did you feed them if you don't mind me asking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
