I’ve been working with a pair of Banggai Cardinals. Their first three attempts resulted in a male with a mouth full of eggs that mysteriously disappeared at around 25 days. I guess he couldn’t take the rigorous fasting. There fourth attempt I kept the female with him (the first three spawns I removed the female as recommended). The day before traveling to Dallas for MACNA, I found these two hatchlings. GREAT, but how to keep them alive while I was gone for 5 days. Giving my wife instructions and prayer worked. Here they are 14 days post hatch.

Now I’m feeding the pair up looking for the fifth spawn and more success.

My GSM clowns have just started breeding and I will be attempting to raise the babies since my female is a nice misbar and my male is just stunning, I will also be starting to try and breed banghai cardinals

I've bred a two generations of baggai cardinalfish, I believe they are fourth generation captive bred now. I've also gotten pseudochromis fridmani (orchid dottyback) and cypho purpurascens (oblique lined dottyback) fry up to 30 days/metamorphasis. The first time getting them to meta I don't know what I did wrong to lose all the fry. The second time I got up to 30 days the power went out for a day so I lost all my food cultures and all my fish fry. I also lost the breeding pairs. I currently have breeding pairs of the banggai cardinalfish, orchid dottyback, indigo dottyback, tail spot blenny, and cleaner gobies. I just don't have any rotifers or other zooplankton on hand to raise the fry currently. I'm currently in the middle of a breeding with sepia bandesis (dwarf cuttlefish).
