Verrucosus larvae (Part2)

[TJ]

One of my eight larvae is twice the size of the others

Maybe you could teach it to bark and be a good guard-newt, Tim.

Hope you keep it separately since they really "love" their siblings.

There coming along nicely.
Do you use filters with your larvae and eggs?

 

[TJ]

Er, Ralf, I don't keep it separately

...but I counted them today and there are still seven. I think before I said eight, but that's the number that hatched, and one probably was cannibalized early on. I keep them well fed, so hope they won't engage in any anti-social behavior like say swallowing their siblings

But do you really think they'd engage in cannibalism at this late stage? Their gills are still quite large so I guess I have a couple weeks to go before they morph.

 

[TJ]

Mark, yes, it seems so. They've proven to be very hardy. As for filters, yes, I used them before with larvae, then stopped for a while after hearing the methods used by others, but have resumed using them. Better safe than sorry! As for eggs, well, I used to use filters but now just do daily or twice daily water changes

Here are mine again. 2 morphed one to go.

And the tank. Its a 10 gallon with some slate and a piece of fossilized coral.

 

[duo]

could you use that setup there entire lives if you wanted to?
