hi i need help with my bumblebee goby, i can't seem to raise their fry past 4 - 5 days.
i have just lost my first batch of fry and the second lot are 3 days old.
can anyone give me some advice please. really would like to keep this lot alive if possible.
 
Bumblebee gobies are technically brackish, the adults can live in fresh but I suspect the fry may need brackish, they will also more than likely require minute live foods. Bumblebee goby fry are also can not adapt to rapid or sudden changes in the water chemistry so if you are doing water changes with the young it could be this that is killing them.
 
Need stable salinity (1 tsp/litre salt, small water changes) and small feed - like strained cooked egg yolk, microworms, BBS
