2 months old. I'm moving 4 of the normal striped ones into my refugium today. Acclimating now. It will be interesting to see if they grow at the same rate, faster, or slower.

how are you going to feed them?

The same way I currently do. They are eating mostly Otomine, with a nibble of nhbbs from time to time. I will probably cut back on how much I feed the display through the auto feeder and feed that to the fuge. My anthias will be mad at me, but they will get over it.

I also left in the cute collection laddle that I am using so they will feel at home and secure. It's the cutest thing I've ever used. It is used instead of a net to collect fish, and so much easier on them.

Nice Lorraine,

Are they showing any kind of aggression twards each other at this stage?

Nothing one sided, even the 2 week olds have arguments which is hilarious to watch. These 4 are staying all together and seem to be doing well. I replaced the ladel with the small ceramic pot that was in their other tank and they have settled inside that.
