This last collection of cysts has been particularly problematic to me 
as well. Good hatches though but there are lots of shells getting to 
my fry tanks.
I don't have a solution, I filter off the BBS and wash them and let 
shells separate. I am just dealing with cleaning the scum off the 
glass from the fry tanks a little more often.
