Make sure you get another culture or two on the go ASAP.
Good luck.

So far they are going well, lost a few just after hatching but most are doing well and growing!!
Any tips for housing them as they will eat each other apparently when they start to grow?

That said, never had these guys myself so can't suggest anything more specific.

Is that a hint for another photo!!? Will post one
I have them in plastic fry savers with a solid base so the food doesnt fall through.
I am unsure if this would have adequate water flow for them or would it be sufficient?
They are still in the parents tank and i have added some extra filters to the tank including one of the
bubble sponge filters (sorry unsure of name!!)
I have a 40L tank i can move them to or a 2.5ft tank but unsure what is the best option because of the idea of them eating each other as they grow
and how to go about it. Do i just use parents water and move them with the sponge filter? and do regular water changes with the parents water?
I am worried because its not an established tank there may be a ammonia/nitrite build up?? is using the parents water regualar water changes and the sponge filter sufficient?
Help would be appreciated and hopefully these little guys survive!!

They are being fed microworms and baby brine and are in a small tank of their own with a bubble sponge filter and have the parents water
I have been doing small water changes every 2 days and syphoning waste food out.
They have been going great only 1 every day or so until the past few days
