Alan Posted November 17, 2003 Report Share Posted November 17, 2003 I am having a problem with my new hatchlings. They are hatching out as tho they are early, and behave like a cichlid, wriggler for five days. The hatch time is the correct time , it's just this wriggler stage they go through. After that, they are up and racing ready to go. I'm not doing anything different from when they were hatching normally, other than my male is one of those new imports. Any ideas.

It has been suggested that water that is too soft and/or too hard affects the egg membrane and can make fry hatch too early. There are many variables you can play with. I've not got any fry from my imported A. australe yet or the Fp. amieti but have a good number of fry from the Fp. nigerianum gold. Andrew.
