Anyone know where I can get decapsulated BBS eggs?
Or should I try Boon or Microworm? Where to buy? |

C328 also sells. Can also try Interpret Liquifry 1 (fries of egg layers) then slowly move on the newly hatch BBS. Frozen daphnia also can be introduced when they're slightly larger.

BTW u never specified what type of cichlid fries...some can be big (CA), some can be very small (angelfish), etc. Also can try out the other various food/s recommended by the above bros...i.e instant BBS (about $12 per bottle), liquidfry (more for very tiny fries), crushed pellets (survival rate lesser due to indigestion or ingredients unsuitability). Hope it helps. |

Boon (daphnia) is too big for dwarf cichlids frys.

My concept (taught by a breeder shifu) is, when you have adult boon, you are bound to have baby boon.
Smaller fry will eat baby boon (plus infusoria), and bigger boon will be eaten by the parents. As the fry progresses (their growth rate per day is amazingly fast), they will upgrade and be able to eat the bigger adult boon along with baby boon present.
