A Closeup of an “L” type Rotifer
This a a very clear transparent microscopic view of an “L”type rotifers. It moves by its tail and small cilia. It eats using its specially designed feeding apparatus. These microscopic creatures can replicate by may differen methods, from thousands of eggs or by dividing themselves. They also have an intelligence that responds to environmental stimuli. My hey will create more females or males to adapt for survival. They can exponentially reproduce despite harsh envoiroments. They’re a necessary food source for every bit of life for marine and freshwater environments. Rotifers thrive in all types of waters. The lower the salinity the faster reproduction increases.

2 week old Baby Peppermint Shrimp.
Here’s a nice close-up of a two week old baby peppermint shrimp, also known as Zoeoa (baby’s shrimp). Shrimp are some of the hardest animals in the marine world to race to adulthood, although it is entirely possible with enough patience and knowledge. That comes with extensive research and networking with fellow Marine breeders, whether they be professional or amateur. Please leave any comments or questions and help me grow my channel by subscribing and give me me rumbles thank you so much and May God bless America🇺🇸

Baby Bengaii Cardinals
Here’s several baby Bangaii Cardinalfish. These little guys spend their early life from egg throughout their water bowl life inside the fathers mouth. Soon I will be posting more video showing this, so stay tuned subscribe, and ask any questions that you would like. I will find an answer if I don’t know one.
If anyone was wondering what the plastic ties are for, this is an artificial long spine urchin. This is their natural defensive maneuver, and all Adult cardinal fish have their own long spine urchin they hang out around for this purpose.

MIcoscopic Pictures of Ritifers and Copepods
This is a microscopic picture of “L” type rotifers and a species of copepod. These are being checked for their health and to estimate the density of their cultures. This batch of rotifers was contaminated by copepods, which isn’t a big deal if tits being fed to the predatory animals soon. Contaminated cultures have the liability of Craig dour to the food source demand. The dark ended areas within the rotifers indicate that theyve been eating well. Rotifers are o my a carrier for the nutrients in their gut and offer no real. Itritions by themselves alone. “You are what you eat”.

Baby Cleaner Shrimp Zoea
All larval shrimp are called “zoea”. Try that one at a cocktail party. It’s the ultimate Trivial Persit question (if that’s even still a game). I was NEVER successful raising them the two times I tried. One of these days I will succeed. To my knowledge, the very few people have succeeded have only been able to raise a handful. Knowledge is increasing substantially on a daily basis.

Age & Size Comparison Video of 2 Striped Blennies.
I thought this was an interesting video that demonstrates the rapid growth of larval Blennies. The largest one with the strikes and absence of transparency, is clearly evident about Galway through the video. The smaller one is indistinguishable from larger larva. Amazing the difference! Just thought I’d share an interesting observations as I have promised. Please share these with all your platforms. We need to bending attention to the peril our reefs and oceans are in.

Berghia Nudibranchs Havingva Snack
One of the projects I’ve recently tackled with great success was super interesting. This want the normal fish and shrimp which are commonly bred. Berghia nudibrachs are a rare sight, only because they eat only one thing: aptasia or aka “glass anemones”. These little guys are no bigger than an inch or so but are a mighty weapon against this coral destroying pest anemome. If u have an infestation of aipaysia, don’t waste money on bathing else. The use mmmmmmmm can be bred for a lucrative profit if it’s done the correct way. Their market orice various from 18-30$ EACH!! I was able to sell over 175 over the last few months and even traded for some nice corals.

Two week old baby Clarkii clownfish
Clownfish grown into their stripes. This one is about 14 day post-hatch. It’s almost through a stage called “metamorphosis”, kind of like when a caterpillar changes into a butterfly, except in this case there’s no cocooon. The specs that you see in the water is the live food that’s always kept with the baby fish as easy snacks. This is a baby Clarkii clownfish almost through metamorphosis.

Baby Clarkii Clowfish 21 days post hatch.
There’s nothing more adorable than baby clownfish. These were placed in a small mason jar as their water and habitat was changed and cleaned. Anyone can raise Saltwater fish at home now with the right knowledge. You need to know the basics first. If anyone would like to know how to set up and breed clownfish, subsubscribe and start throwing me questions if there’s anything anyone wants to know about salt water and breeding many of the animals common to the hobby. Corals are fun but this is a blast. I’ve not seen it up close and experienced it myself until trying it the last six years. Give me some help boosting the channel so I can reach as many oeooole as possible. We are all responsible for learning and taking care of the creatures on this earth. We must preserve our oceans. Theyve been very abused. Im trying to share what I’ve been learned and experienced so that others can have that same awe and appreciation.
Please help me spread my message as our reeds a d oceans our vital to the existence of the human race. Take personal responsibility, because our governments surely are not. Please subscribe and share to boost my exposure. There are much more videos and awe inspiring videos to come once edited. I welcome any tips on video editing as well as software.

2-week old baby clownfish.
I raised these clownish from the eggs laid by the parents. They’re still very tiny but a replica of their parents. I’ve placed a nickel beside the temporary holding tank for perspective. It’s a tedious process to raise them due to their delicatenass, but have found a way to make the process a lot easier. These are two of the Six that made it through metamorphosis. Please help out my channel and share this and all the amazing videos I have yet to post. Way more to come. I’ll be transferring my whole YouTube channel here as well.
