A slew of "other species" breeding efforts

[mwp]

Efren, get ahold of some copepods...Tisbe might be a good one to try. Or you just are having issues with enriching the rotifers (at that point though, shouldn't they be taking baby brine shrimp?) Efren, you may want to try Wittenrich's book from 2007...he has a big section on Dottybacks and he knows his fish!

-----BREEDING UPDATES - NEW SPECIES SPAWNED!!!------

Oxymonacanthus longirostris - yes, you heard it right, I have a spawning pair of Harlequin Filefish now. They've been going through the motions for a while now, but finding the eggs are a pain! Marine Ornamental Fish & Invert Breeders Association :: View topic - Oxymonacanthus longirostris - BREEDING LOG (Survival log)

Synchiropus ocellatus - Yes, while waiting to see if any filefish hatched out in the main tank tonight, I had the pumps off. I came to look later and surprise surprise, I find Scooter Blenny Eggs! I've now spawned every commonly available Synchiropus species! Marine Ornamental Fish & Invert Breeders Association :: View topic - Synchiropus ocellatus (Scooter Blenny) Breeding Log - mwp

And yet, I'm battling ICH on my Onyx Perc pair's reef (including the pair)...no reason for it at all, just appeared out of nowhere recently. Go figure...

Scooter Blenny fishes are one of my favorites. Can't wait to see if they hatch.
