Questions about raising apisto and other fry...

["Raymond Wong" <myapisto@hotmail.com>]

Hi bob,

ah I C.. thanks..
i haven't been successful with raising my borelli fry for the last 3 
batches.. they die after the 3rd day for some reason?!?!

but i pull them out around 3 ~ 4 days after I see them free swimming...

I have a lot of troubles raising german ram fry too... I think it's because 
some eggs fungus and I don't pick off them fast enough.. i'll try the 
malifix next time..

as for artificial hatching eggs.. angels are the easiest for me.. don't know 
why... maybe I spent more time picking out the dead eggs.. or maybe angel 
fish are easier to raise? compared to ram fry...

any comments? (i also forwared this e-mail to the list)
thanks
Raymond Wong
