On 3/24/13 I gave a clutch of eggs to a BAR member (fingerwrinkles) and he transported them over an hour away and successfully hatched most of the eggs the next day and still kicking today

April 27th hatch has 3 survivors. May 7th hatch has too many to count all thriving.
I think I have the system down now. Still I guess anything could go wrong

another hatch on 12-5.  As I was running out of space I placed the eggs in with the last hatch of 11-17 that were in my 5 gallon hatch tank. These hatched in with the 18 day old fry. So far so good.

Did my eyes deceive me or does that acrylic tank have nearly inch thick sides?
 
Congrats on the babies! Noticed a platinum in the picture as well.
