Good Morning Everyone,
Not sure if there is anyone from New England Aquarium on this website...
While I was in Australia I received an email from the New England Aquarium asking about food items to offer hatchling nautilus. Exciting news! They were able to get the first hatchling to start eating and then had a second hatchling a few days later. The interesting part is that the hatchlings just showed up in the tank one morning. Nautilus eggs are so well camouflaged that they can be overlooked, especially when you are not actively trying to breed them.
Right now I am on a bus to Boston to check them out and get some more details.
I have so many questions so I hope they are ready. More soon!
Greg
