Bryan's Grow Out Challenge Thread 2018

[warblad79]

From your documented experience so far , it seems to me that for some reason BBS outperform other foods for growouts at this young age .

About introducing your BH mix . Why next month , why not tommorow ?

I don't want to introduce them too early, it might be too hard for them to process the food. BBS is pack in protein about 60%-65% and easy to digest at young age. I'll keep continue feeding as long as they take it but I'll try to wean them once they pass quarter size.

So Challengers, a question for you to answer in your contest threads... what kind of light cycle are using?

I'm using a regular LED daylight bulb and it's ON 24/7.

Won't they get stressed with the light on 24/7?

Not at all.

They are now exactly 2 weeks under my care from this day on. I'm the one who received them the last so they are in the bag for 5 days but luckily they have all survived. So much improvement are noticeable looking back 2 weeks ago. The biggest one is now probably larger than a quarter and the smallest one is almost a quarter size but there's still room for growth. Their appetite are rapidly increasing so I'll provide more solid food moving forward and slowly stop feeding BBS. More updates are coming in later weeks.

I just looked at pg 1 images of the fry when you received them and I am stunned by the current size, condition & growth rate of your group. Wow mate, great job. Clearly have done this many times b4 and have certainly "cracked the code." Nice!

Nice going Bryan, I am noticing a wee bit of color in the outer fins and gill covers also. What are you feeding now?
