My axolotls recently laid their first batch of eggs and as I don't have many plants in the tank they laid mainly on the solid things in my tank and some on the glass. I had to remove them to send them to people as I don't have the room to raise them all! In the process of removing the eggs from the tank and removing the dead/fungus covered eggs I broke a couple of the eggs and the larvae escaped.
I currently have them in a small dish and they lie on their side unless the nudge them or move the dish, then they swim quickly away.
I wanted to know if anyone knows when these larvae will start to feed? Whether their yolk will sustain them until they would have hatched or if they will start to eat within two days as normal fully developed larvae do? Also I presume their development will proceed normally but does anyone have any experience with this?
Thanks for any help!
