Well, we've had a full-on day and had to empty the tank and install new fittings, sump, banjo filters, chiller unit, air pumps ... and .... shudder .... against my better judgement for recently hatched squid ... a protein skimmer, all in the sump, and now use the powerhead to pump water from the sump to the main tank (this recirculating system makes me rather nervous; read a number of the 'sump' threads on 'Tank setup and maintenance'; Col, Nancy, you two do a marvelous job!!)). Unfortunately you cannot see any of this 'behind the scenes' stuff, and to me it's the most interesting part.
I've still separated the larvae from the main tank, even though it is now suitable for them, but will add them tomorrow, once water quality/clarity improves, and maybe even remove the clump of eggs (and keep this separate; you need two totally different tank/water flow environments for the two; they cannot be kept together in such a small system). So, if you tune in tomorrow you should see live squid - there should be ~ 100 in there (but remember, the paralarvae are small - it will still be ~ 20 days away before you can track them or observe them properly); they'll probably be hanging around the surface.
Touch wood all goes to plan.
