Interesting read and we'll done on your artificial rearing. I'm going to have a go myself, though it's not practiced much in the UK. I've just reared a couple of small spawns from 7 days old but will have a go at doing it from day one.
I have some fish meal powder and shrimp shell powder, would it be worth adding that to the egg yolk mix ?
Re: Artificial Raising fry project (my first time)

Re: Artificial Raising fry project (my first time)

Egg yolk recipe didn't work for me, plus it fouls the water really fast .. BBS worked best for me.

Re: Artificial Raising fry project (my first time)
I have some fun updates :)
I picked my fav Curipera cross from the grow out (he’s a 7” jumbo) and crossed it with Albino red cover.
Since my grow outs carry the Albino gene I got 50% albinos, it was so fun to see this. Sadly I couldn’t save them(tried to artificially raise them again) here are some pictures. Pair are still actively spawning but female lays very less eggs.

That's a stunning pair Sanjay, and one of the coolest pics I've ever seen to distinguish albino from non-albino fry. Very nice!!

Thanks Dan ! I felt so happy to see the variation. Hopefully I get to save a batch from them. I want to see how the Albino version of the Curipera cross would look like.

After almost 2 years they paired up again, this time no need to raise them artificially

Re: Artificial Raising fry project (my first time)
It's an albino alenquer and curipera cross Jeanne, both wild types so no PB line.

Come on down Dan
So there is a new store opening UtahDisus near my place, I might take his help on shipping.
Thank you Jeanne, what Dan is right, both are brown based fish. You can see this thread on how the fry from them grew out to look like. My last post on this thread, the non albino one is a baby from these two.
