Some helpful tips for raising the larvae:
- Put some java moss in the tank
- Treat the water with water conditioner
- Change half of the water frequently to ensure a clean environment
- Feed them regularly (3 to 4 times) with dried brine shrimp powder everyday
Happy baby-sitting the larvae~~~
Cheers,
