RIP First Spawn


They began at a conservative estimate of 50+

By the beginning of the second week, we were down to less than 30

By week three were down to less than 20

Week four saw us at around 10 and we removed dad.

Week five saw the remaining 7 die due to over eating causing their abdomen to explode.

Lessons learned:

Don't leave dad in there for any more than a week.
Don't change from frozen BBS to live BBS during raising process
Vinegar Eels are an excellent, easy, and no fuss week one live food

Things to do:

****Must figure out how to hatch live BBS at home****
