chances are if he ate that many, then they either werent furtilized, or something else was wrong with them.

i would just remove the divider on this batch and wait for the next batch.

[paranoid1123]

i guess i should take the divider out now? or do you think maybe some survived?

[TaTeR ToT]

its ok, it happens.
they will get it right over time.

i love those jewels man!
makes me want to setup my 20gl again.

[paranoid1123]

I just thought of something, I put this post in the wrong forum. sorry

[paranoid1123]

yes they are RED here is some crappy pictures but you can see the color.

[TaTeR ToT]

btw, what type of jewels are they?
if they are the red variety then i would be very interested in a few fry.

[TaTeR ToT]

yes, when the fry become free swimming they will likely get sucked up.

what i always did when my green terrors had fry i would put panty hose over the intake of my filters.
this way i wouldnt have to worry about the fry getting sucked up.

[paranoid1123]

i don't have any bottom feederd buy i have a few snails do you think the intake ov my fluval 404 will suck up the hatched eggs? also if I move the rock should i move the parents also?
