Wondering when these should be pulled ? Went through quite a few journals trying to find similar fish , and temps? Any suggestions? Think today is day six , and water temp is usually around 82.5 .

So I pulled the pot Sunday night , and nothing until this morning and I was out of town for work. So my wonderful girlfriend called this morning , and I got to instruct her over the phone to add rotifers , and tint water lol. About 30 hatched!
