Mr McFish Posted November 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 That will be good. I only got about 5 fungused eggs. Can they still go bad now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr McFish Posted November 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 There hatching now, I got 5 hatched so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simian Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 Well done mate. Once they stop looking like a tadpole and loose their egg sack, microworms as suggested, its a piece of cake from here slosh fresh water in from main tank 2x day to keep water in the small container fresh. Too easy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr McFish Posted November 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 Got them in a 55 litre bare bottum tank with an air stone aand heater on 26 still a few more to hatch out yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr McFish Posted November 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 How do I get the waste off the bottum with out sucking the fish up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enzoom1 Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 Use a small nozzled hose and I'm sure they'd move away from it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zev Posted November 22, 2009 Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 Airline hose is good, keep your finger on the other end in the bucket as well, so that you can stop the flow - some aren't smart enough to keep away from the sucky end!

Mr McFish Posted November 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 Just used the airline tube some whent through so scouped them out with a fine sive and tiped the rest out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr McFish Posted November 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2009 I put a small stone in the airline so that the in take is to small for the fish to fit up. There are atleast 60 that I have counted witha few more still hatching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
