The cheato came from Calatagan and is two weeks old, and still going. These are the visible differences:
1. Wild cheato is lighter
2. Less curly
3. Less dense (bulk mass)
One week later, the difference is less evident. Lighting is 24hrs, with a 20watt Akari bulb.
Wild and Tank bred cheato out of the water, day 1
Wild and Tank bred cheato in the setup, day 1
Wild and Tank bred cheato in the setup, day 7
The entire setup is in my new mangrove tray:
The cheato on the green tub is for the sea hare while he's waiting for transfer.
Its pretty early to say, but I guess the success is due to the right light and good handling. There doesn't seem to be any difference between the two kinds. I'm inviting all those who have succeeded in growing cheato in their setups to try the same experiment and confirm my results. PM me if you want to try.
