    Well, i just walked over to my tank, and to my surprise one of my cleaner shrimp just released a whole group of larvae...they are everywhere. Hope some live...doubt it...but hey...you never know ;)

    Bruce, catch a couple for me. That last nitrate spike i had killed both of mine.

    I hope some survive. maybe turn off your skimmer and flow for a little bit and see if they settle down and mature. That would be so cool.

    Unfortunately, the odds of it happening are pretty grim. However you never know. Bruce, if you had a refugium or separate tank for the larvae, you may have a better chance...

    I will try. They are so small. They usually hide in the rock.
