RG wouldn't kill them off lack of air would. http://www.fishtalpropagations.com/#!home/mainPage "Making captive breeding easier."   #2 EasterEggs Total Posts : 1946 Scores: 19 Reward points : 735 Joined: 9/22/2011 Location: Saskatoon, SK, CA Status: offline MBI: 590 Pnts MBI Site: Marine Breeding Initiative (MBI) Re:need help with eggs?? Sunday, April 21, 2013 10:04 AM (permalink) 0 I don't add greenwater or rotifers until the next day as I find the greenwater does affect hatching by leading to fungus.  Hatching without greenwater I don't get fungus.  I am no expert though, so don't take this as gospel.  Don't let fear and common sense stop you! =]   #3 robertgangly Total Posts : 20 Scores: 0 Reward points : 68 Joined: 10/3/2012 Location: Cheyenne, WY, US Status: offline MBI: 25 Pnts MBI Site: Marine Breeding Initiative (MBI) Re:need help with eggs??
