Another Question Or Two For Breeders

[redbetta]

Ok so as usual I am doing some more research. I'm reading stuff all the time, I find it quite interesting. Now just to make sure. How long does it take for them to use up their yolk sac. On bettatalk it says after 3 days. Does that mean 3 days after they are hatched is when you give them the first meal? I'm just curious as to how long the yolk sac goes. So you don't really need to feed until like 5 days after they spawn? Someone correct me if I'm wrong on that. Thanks

Hmm well two days after they hatch. And it varies from breeder to breeder. Once they are no longer 'white' the sac is gone.

I feel as soon as they hatch like one or two drops liquifry to make sure there is infusoria. Some don't feed for two days but I would never chance it. You can see babies with full tummies, and smaller ones, so I always worry bout those runts.
