My first spawn for Year 2009.... now bbrs about 5 weeks old. This is an experimental spawn whereby I weaned the fries when they were about 3 weeks old straight from brine shrimp (which I hatched) directly to fine pelleted food and frozen blood worm and bypassing the feeding of live daphnia. Live daphnia contains lots of parisites and tho give the fries better bulk, the parisites will eventually overwhelm the whole spawn and it will be uphill battle once inflicted. Notice that at 5 weeks old the bbrs are not any smaller in size compared to my earlier spawn.
