RE: Quick question, quick answer.



I don't worry about live food in the peat. Some, like daphnia survives
incubation. Other foods don't appear to cause problems and I feel that they
may even cause an infusoria bloom. Of course I may be totally wrong (nothing
new there!)

Subject: Quick question

Hi!
     I am new to Killifish and have been breading with peat for the first
time. Recently I noticed several eggs in the peat containers and this
Saturday makes three weeks since I started and I plan on taking the
containers and peat out, but I have noticed a bloodworm and a few Brine
shrimp in the peat. I feed live shrimp and worms daily and usually the fish
eat them right up but sometimes I see the shrimp swimming in the peat
containers. How do I get them out without sucking up eggs and can I just
pick
them out this Saturday? How harmful is this to the eggs, fish and peat moss?

                                                                Thank you.
