I would like to help the kids from the coral reef project at the school where I volunteer at. I have hatched them out before but never grown them up. Any advice? I like to Diy Stuff. Also I am into teaching recycling whenever I can. Thanks.
 
If you want to see them to adult-hood, it's very similar to just hatching. Maybe add some ground up pellets and they'll feed off the surface gunk. Otherwise they're pretty self-sufficient.
If you need to separate shells, check out Paul's hatcher, it basically is 2 sides, with a hole in the center, and then you add light to the side opposite of the eggs. As they hatch they see the light, swim through the hole and you then have all the shells collected on the opposite side.
