A one-month Journey. I have a peppermint shrimp that continuously spawn eggs. So I tried netting some larvae out. Drop them in a 2 gallon tank. Put approximately two dozen in. At the same time I added 3 to 4 oz of phytoplankton and added some freshly hatched brine. In two days I had a phytoplankton bloom.
After a week I counted nine larvae swimming around. Each week I lost a couple of larvae. A week and a half ago I had one. Now I have one peppermint shrimp. 20220117_195840.jpg

Cool. I think you need to post the videos to YouTube if you want people to be able to see the videos
 
I was able to watch the videos in Chrome no problem. This is really cool, aside from the larva not making it...

Very cool. If my spawn won’t last a minute with my wrasses
