congrats man those are rbps and

also they are not skittish at their size because you got a decnt photo of em

They are hiding most of the time but i made sure i put lots of hiding in the temp tank for now so they can be as comfortable as possible. When it comes to feeding time though they are not shy, i feed them fillet fish as Jp recommended but on a rope in the front of the tank and they love it they all come out and feed together and are not bothered with me watching

Good luck with all them keep us updated!

I will do, they are doing alot better today, as last night they ate but were causious and took awhile to come out of hiding before they ate but today no such problem as i have given them loads of hiding so they can feel safe and i put a dark towel under the light so the light is very dim. So when i put food in they come out straight away and eat it all.

1 question i have i remember reading on the forums that when small shold feed them a few times a day, how many times exact should i feed them 3 or 4 times? and each time should mix it up with say in the morning shrimp and later on fillet?

Also mixing between shrimp & fillet would that be the most beneficial diet for them so they grow up strong and get there full color?

Anyway Thanks again for all the help to everyone much appreciated.

Hugs to all

not sure what the optimal rate of feeding is for baby pygos, however as to the second part of your question, you should vary the diet as much as possible. If that means feeding more than one type of food a day then do it.

I think is probably 4-5 times a day if you can.
