Hi hope everyone is well.
I got a batch of eggs and half turned white in my ziss tumbler.
I raised the temperature from 80 to 83 could that be it.
Last few spawns I had a 99% hatch rate.

Temperature shouldn't have hurt them, but in future leave the temperature the same and see how they do.
Good luck!

Eric

Thanks buddy It happened a few more times.
I was thinking maybe I take the eggs to soon and the male needs time to fertilize completely

Hi Eric

on feeding the babies I been keeping wood and moss and almond leaves in there because I heard they eat before the yolk is dissolved?
I add bacter a also.
Any advice you once mentioned you don't feed every night do you feed every other night?

Hi! I've heard plenty of people say don't feed until the yolk is gone, but I start adding food when about half the yolk remains. Leaves, algae flakes and freeze dried tubifex. I don't feed my adults daily, but I feed young fry once or twice a day.
Good luck!

I was wondering can I add newly hatched fry to the same container as fry that are 2 weeks old.
So far so good just wonder if the 2 week fry would try and eat the yolk sac from the babies.

I would be hesitant to add eggs, but I would add hatchlings.
Cheers, Eric
