I have made a somewhat a unsuccessful attempt at raising german blue ram fry. I have a death ratio of 96% to 100%. I have almost tried everything. Here it goes:
When fry eggs have been fertilized I left them in tank till they started to wiggle, the parents moved them, and I never found them again, so
I moved them to a different tank (pint size) after they had been fertilized and they hatched but after their yolk sack was used (3-4days) and they were free swimming I started feeding them Walter Worms.
I changed the water 3 times a day with parents tank water. It is average that I lose 2-5 fry a day. They are eating, pooping, and swimming ok but I wake up in the morning and I have death at the bottom.
I also wanted to mention I have aeration constantly in the pint tank and the water is kept at a constant 84 degrees.
I just need them to get to a good size to I can start feeding Brine Shrimp.
I have had a few fry live from each one, but the ratio is not good.
All water parameters are normal and within range.
Anybody got suggestions?????
Thanks in advance
