congratulations Haavard, I hope they will hatch!
I have placed them in a net as you suggested, but it will effect the following photographs as I will have to release the eggs to the bottom to photograph them. Thank you:)Janne wrote:Congratulations... now you will have difficult to return the couple to your friend
I always use a net where I place the eggs hanging down into the hatching container with an airstone or the inlet of the water sligtly move them a little, I found it difficult to place them at the bottom much more sensitive to fungus. I move the net every day turn the eggs around, sometime a few eggs is attacked by fungus but mostly all eggs hatch and I release the fry into the container. Desinfect the net if you use an old one before you place any eggs inside (chlorin works).

Neither am I, but I feel like raising it to 30-31. My only reason is to immitate the metabolism of the actual river of origin. I really don`t know, and I am hoping for some input on the matter.Cristoffer Forssander wrote: I'm not sure about the temperature...
when are you giving the parents back??? you should give the temperature raise a try if your not giving the parents back, because if the eggs die due to the temp. raise(which i hope wont happenHaavard Stoere wrote:Neither am I, but I feel like raising it to 30-31.

They look healthy to me...my opinion on the temperature change is to not change it, I find if I start messing with things adds to the potential of disaster...may take longer to develop but they are developing IMO.I need your advice or opinions on a matter.... The temperature is currently steady at 28,2. Should I carefully raise it to 30-31 during the next 48 hours? I am thinking of the temperature where these fish actually live and breed and the speed of development in the embryos.
Also... Do these eggs look healthy and fertile?
