Hahah yes they are, today has been 1 weeks since they were eggs in the adult tank. Do you think they are growing at an okay rate?

Do you think that they are growing at a healthy rate?

Yes and your doing a great job. When they get to a inch or more you can try Mysis Shrimp and strips of Tilapia, and pellets but very small pellets.

Hey, all of them were doing great and free swimming, but now they are all kind of bunched up on the bottom and not moving or swimming as much. Is there any reason for this, like maybe they are developing some new parts and they are caught in a weird phase where they don’t swim/move as much?

P.S/ I know they aren’t dead because they haven’t turned white like all the other dead ones I found in the beginning weeks!
please get back to me soon as this is starting to concern me.

They shouldn't on the bottom. Test your water parameters asap.

Should I go ahead and do a 75% water change right now or will that be to much stress on them
