Some have started or looks like they are sucking on the bottom. How long does it take for the sac to disappear? When should I feed them on first?

Cant answer your questions, but they are great pics i would be over the moon.

What is that milky stuff in the bottle on the right in your video?

It's called k1 media and you use it in moving bed filters, the bacteria that grows on it is suppose to be better then the static kind that's in the external filter and processes the waste alot quicker as only the strongest bacteria survive. think its normally use in pond/koi tanks, have seen it in a few marine sumps as well.

Little update, all 25 are still there. Still have a little yolk sac, but think that should be gone in a few days. They grow so quick.

Thanks, check them this morning and noticed I had 2 that were quite light in colour and not moving. Didn't take any photos but they didn't look like they were too fat or thin but the belly was a slight grey/black colour, is this normal? How often should I feed? As I fed them some prima and algae wafer last night and removed this morning. They are about a 1cm now the yolk sac has gone.
