    Big enough I thought they could live in the nano, wrong I tried one it didn't last long. So I am going to leave them alone. I just wonder how they got past the filter floss.

    That's great Greg. Hope they survive so you can share them with others.

    I still have at least one baby alive in the sump of my Nano, so it's at least two weeks old.

    Update, I still have one baby alive from my first batch and today there is a new batch of babies, I did not know till I turned off the pumps to feed and saw one smimming around, I looked in the filter floss and found two that did not make it. I guess I need to stop using the floss if they make it into the refugium they seem to have a chance.
