No movement

[mahialise]

Well my little ones have been out of their eggs about 3 days now, I know for sure I still have 2 alive, but the other 3 aren't moving is this normal?
I'm worried they may have died on me.

Gently poke them near the tail and see if they swim. They won't move much at all for at least the first week.

Ooh! well three of them moved, so I've separated them just to be safe and will keep on feeding/changing!
Fingers crossed!

Thanks

Good to hear. Sometimes they don't move even when you poke them. So just be patient. They'll start growing legs before you know it.

Two of them have hooked tails now, I'm not sure whether that was stress from the move or just illness.
Hopefully they will be okay in the morning, but it's not looking good.

How are your little guys looking now? I've got my fingers crossed for you!
