looking good Neo
he should be sitting with his face on the floor though, as if he is stuck to it.
Now is a good time to get out the magnifying glass, turn off the pump so that you have clear still water and have a closer look.
If you look really carefully you can see the heartbeat as there bodies are completely transparent at this stage.
ANyway, keep an eye on him as he should really be sticking to the floor with his sucker mouth. There is a possibility of him not being as strong as he should which could explain why he was not in the cave. For the protection of the others the male kicks any that may die out of the cave.
Keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Neo
Please do not get disheartened. The fact that so many hatche don a first spawn is fantastic.
Keep your fingures crossed for the rest of them in the cave.

Is this still sort of a learning curve for them? would they not produce strong young at first or is there another possible cause for the deaths?
