The other thread was getting long,so I thought I'd start a new one.
After my initial incredible failure to get the larvae to survive, I am now doing a lot better. I put some cyclops (small number) with the larvae and watched carefully...the cyclops only attacked the larvae after a few days - I suspect after their natural food ran out. I am having good success putting the larvae in a small shallow container overnight with cyclops and microworm, then transferring them back to the large container before the cyclops turn the tables. They are eating like crazy, hopefully catching up on their slow growth. They are able to catch prey more easily in shallow water aswell.
Juraj - if you read this - How are yours?

Hi Chris,
I made a fatal error and lost another 14 during Easter. At the moment I have 22 left. I`ve started feed small chopped earth worms and freshly hatched compost worms. It works perfectly.
