    Good morning every one.

    I bought a pair of GBR from Marco and they spawned last night.
    The first unfertilised batch that I noticed was gone within an hour and by this morning, a new batch was visable. Was to dark to see weather this batch was fertilised or not.
    It takes the eggs about 40-48 hours to hatch and then after that the fry only becomes free swimming after 4-5 days, at which point you have to start feeding it.
    I am in the process of preparing baby brine shrimp, but noticed that you can feed them finly ground food and or mirco worms.
    Does any one know where I would be able to obtain micro worm culture?
    What do you give your fry?

    My rams start off with microworms for the 1st couple of days then ill alternate with frozen rotifiers and newly hatched brineshrimps. On week 3 its larger brineshrimps some fine foods and cyclops week 4 its all systems go and they should take about anything you have availible in the line of fish food that is.
