Very easy. Add peat.
Put the peat in a small glass jar or some thing. Do not make it too
deep as the peat can turn anaerobic and kill the eggs. Also harvest
regularly, say once every 1 or 2 weeks.
Feed lots of Brine Shrimp if you want good egg production.
Best of luck with the nothos. I don't keep N. palmqvisti but a few
other nothos and I can't believe any fish can beat the colours in
this genus.
