3 cuttlefish eggs have hatched!!

[fish keeper 7]

hello, i just got 3 cuttle eggs 2 nights ago from a a fellow MR member, and 2 hatched that very night, and one hatched last night. so now i have 3 baby cuttles. they dont eat for the first few days so i figured id order the food when they hatched, have it overnighted and everything is good.

ordered 200 ml rotifers and 100 mysids.

no confirmation of order yet so im kind of worried about my cuttles!

would anybody be able to supply me with some copepods as i really dont want to use tiggerpods for my cuttles, i would just rather use a different type from someones tank.

ill pick them up and pay for them if possible. lmk asap please.

Thanks
-Alan.

what kid os size tank and flow do you have them in

 

[fish keeper 7]

right now i have them in a small in tank refugium and not much fluw, just enough to keep the water changing. the holes were too big and they could have escaped so i cut out a plastic bag and wrapped it around and used a toothpick to put about 5 holes in every hole. i have it on the left side of my tank and have my maxijet 1200 pointed towards front glass on an angle so the flow reaches the refugium^^ ill post pics soon.
