Re: [Killietalk] "no eggs"

[animator <animator at singnet_com.sg>]

For me, I never expected a high hatch rate from eggs I bought. I just 
need enough fishes to start a small colony of 5-6 fishes. that'll be 
good enough.

So far, the hatch rate I get from eggs purchased ranges from 0% to 70+%.

Though I don't have high hopes, I still hope that buyers of my eggs can 
give me a feedback on the hatch rate. And if they're really poor like 
only getting a few fishes from a batch of 50-100 eggs, I'd resend them 
another bag again, if I still gotten the eggs of the species.

So far, the feedback I got is similar to what I've experienced for myself.
