Congrats. Pups look quite varied.
 
So I was able to finish the grow out tank for the pups early this mourning. I put them in a 60 gal acrylic 36x20x18 it's running off the main tank, I snapped a few more picks

Thanks guys. A few of them still had a little of the yolk sack left and its only been less then a day since birth, but when would I expect the pups to start eating? I threw in half of a night crawler about 4am this morning, nothing was touched when I checked on them around 10am. Out of everything I have researched and read on MFK I can't seem to remember reading about when pups are supposed to start eating

It may be a couple days before they show any interest in food. Very normal.
 
Congrats! Good job on the pup tank as well. How much did your female grow during the pregnancy?

I find pups take a few days to a week to eat. Personally like bare bottom pup tanks so it's easier for them to find the food and stay clean, and they don't get use to hiding all the time, but to each his own. If you are chopping night crawlers remember to chop them up really small at first. I mean 1/8 inch slices more or less.
