Hi Pierre--

I haven't kept Fp. gardneri gold, but I have kept N'Sukka and albino. I
had problems with egg fungus at first. I found that, although the adults
can tolerate (and spawn in) water up to about 200 ppm GH, the eggs do
much better at lower hardness. I water incubate mine in a custard cup
with a 50/50 mix of tankwater and rainwater. I am getting good hatches
and healthy fry.

Hope this helps.

Catherine
