I am thinking to restart up my breeder tank and the larvae tank again. Seeing my 2 females constantly berried is really depressing knowing those larvae end up being eaten.

I am thinking to go full saltwater and live phytoplankton route for the larvae tank with a sponge filter. Anyone tried that before? This is based on the theory that the larvae float out to sea to feed until adulthood.

Go for it! Live phytoplankton from?

I had previously bought some micro algae culture disk from Florida aqua farms http://floridaaquafarms.com/product-cat ... -cultures/

But somehow I misplaced them lol. So I never got to experiment with micro Plant plankton for the larvae. I can’t remember which plankton breed I bought, think it was nanochloropsus. Darn....I need to research again. It’s got to be able to live in saltwater and as tiny size as possible.

Oh wow. How big is your larvae tank going to be?

Not big. Just about 8 litres
