If you'd like some help, let me know. I notice you're not from an English-speaking country, and I'm a writing tutor with ESL (English as a Second Language) experience. The PufferPedia would definitely benefit from your experience!
"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."

There colors are really starting to show up slowly, and i wonder since you can zoom in so close to each of the baby puffers, would you be able to tell what sex they are since they are still "transparent"???

Smaller still growing. Already have 9 days of life.
I'm having trouble feeding properly because they need lots of food and every little time, and I do not have time nor do I have enough food :( , but none has yet died
I'm trying to get rotifer, but for now I have not succeeded
