I was hoping to add some photo's of the newly morphed tigers lolloping merrily through their new terrestrial home... but instead they have decided to remain in the water :errr:
I suspect they are waiting for it to be cooler. At the moment they prefer to stay submerged with them occasionally popping their noses out of the water.
During feeding and spot cleaning ( not that it is spot cleaning... they are mucky little things) they have started splashing the water more. Maybe its a way to distract potential prey... it certainly works on curious 7 year old male children
They are still feeding, but consuming less. The smaller non morphed larvae are now a little braver and they nip in an take food from under their noses. Out of this small batch a few have still gills.
The outdoor larvae have now been split between two tubs. One group ended up in the daphnia tub .. with in the week they seem to have consumed the lot. They are now on whiteworm. They other tub has various aquatic insect larvae and Blackworm . Growth rates are much the same.
