Hi everybody,
my male blue ram got severely ill and finally died a few days ago during a breeding attempt. The female kept on caring for the eggs. After he died, I saw her picking up the eggs. I looked at the breeding-stone and it was empty. She also left the breeding area.
Now to my complete and utter surprise I saw her with a swarm of fry.
I immediately evacuated the other fish.
Now I´m in quite a panic as there`s the important question of food, of course. The only food I´ve got at home right now is artemia-solution in a tube. I don´t want the little ones to starve.
So what should I do next? Could anybody please tell me how to raise some slipper animalcule???? Or how do I set up artemia eggs properly????
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Greetings,
Birgit
