    The wigglers have now attached themselves to the parents. (so very cool to watch them interact with the parents!) There are probably anywhere from 30-40 or so from what I can tell from a quick glance. (being so small, those little buggers are quick!)
    I did a water change last night of about 25% as I wasn't quite sure as to what the parents would do. I also cleaned out the sponge filter. They didn't seem to mind, but kept themselves and the babies to the opposite side of the tank. So I didn't want to push it any farther than that by trying to clean the sides of the tank or sort of scrub up what is on the bottom of the tank. I'm trying to take this slow so I don't scare them.
    So now that the fry have attached themselves to the parents, I presume today would be a good day to start adding in baby brine shrimp? Or should I hold off another day or what should my next step be?

    I normally start BBS at about 5 days free swimming. Congrats and good luck the rest of the way.
