They will feed from the parents for a while, when the become totally free swimming you can introduce some BBS, but dont put too much in too start..

Jonesy....they will feed off the slime from their parents body for some days, dont feed them at that time. when free swimming you can start giving them a LITTLE bit of BBS, every couple of hours at least for the first week or so. Only enough so they eat it in 10 min. no longer. remember they need to "find" the food first so have patience. Like they say "watch and enjoy"

Any more pictures coming????

Jim.

Jonesy.........you are doing fine......i do a lot of photography it is one of my hobbies.....i sometimes take 100 photos of my fish only to realise that maybe 2 or 3 are any good...so dont worry just keep trying it is very rewarding when you get the right one. :P
keep them coming.
cheers Jim
