[Killietalk] seeing eggs in peat
I'm getting ready to try wetting some notho eggs again, and am just
wondering: what do you do to check for eyes-up when the eggs are all
mixed up in damp peat? I don't think there are a lot of eggs in this
batch of peat, so I think it will be quite hard to find eggs to check
without wetting it and spreading it around on a flat dish. But if I
can avoid that, I'd like to, because I think I lost the one viable fry
from the first wetting because it was handled too much moving from dish
to dish finally to tank.
I suspect that just wetting it all and seeing what happens is the way
to go this time, but I bet some of you smart killiefolk have ways to
make spot eggs in the peat for repeated checking without wetting each
time.
