aussie123 Posted November 22, 2012 Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 Pool salt. 2 heaped tablespoons in a 2 litre coke bottle filled with straight tap water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyfish Posted November 22, 2012 Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 awesome! do these need to have a filter or feed anything to live? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussie123 Posted November 22, 2012 Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 3 days after they hatch you can start feeding them on powdered yeast. Never try and feed them before 3 days. They also need a water change every day or 2 in the hatching container or you will get a massive bacterial bloom and kill them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martib Posted November 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 ok ive put a batch off bs down and as its 24 deg at night and 30 odd during the day and they have a light on them during the night,so how long would you think it would take for them to hatch. and when they do hatch and i turn the air off how will i know they have hatched,will i see them buzzing around. cheers marty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
