Hey guys, Thought i would re-post here since the other thread was in the wrong location. If you check out my first post you can read the whole back story, any way got my first octo back in Feburary. Since then i have found out it was a dwarf octo and last night its eggs hatched after about a month of brooding and not eating. Also i know it is hard to get any of them to survive but i think i have a rare chance given that i have a few hundred baby crabs in the same tank that must have been larvae that came in on one of the live feeder fidler crabs. They are small enough for the babies to eat. I would love to hear from you guys on anything to do to help them survive. Since they were getting sucked into the drain valve, i shut off the pump and skimmer. and put an air stone in. the mother is still alive but i know that doesnt last longer than a week. really something to watch this. Hope to get some good links and info from you all.. Thanks
