Hi quick question. When you place in the peat box should you keep it covered, meaning should I have a lid on it or can it be opened? And what if the weather is cool, will it affect the hatching? Thanks in Advance
Depends on the temperature but around 2 weeks is good before you wet them. If you keep adding new eggs 3plus weeks is possible so most of them hatch at the same time.
Hi MoreChannelNoise, it changes a bit depending on the species incubated, the humidity/moisture of the peat and temperature. Plus you can wait for extra week or more for some developed eggs to have the slower/newer ones to catch up. That way you end up having most eggs hatching roughly around the same time. Above is why there is variation on incubation times. The 10 weeks must be for an annual killifish though not annual.
Great video! Please keep making them
Miles Pomeroy thank you. We plan to make various videos like this; short and to the point. Appreciate the encouragement 😊
6.57 minutes simple and very informative .. Keep it up mate.
This really good
Thanks for all of the information 👍👍
Thank you :)
What is the tool called great video
Hi. I want to try breed killifish. Just wondering is the peetmoss soil?
Do you need to keep it moist? Does it need a little to keep humidity?

My local killifish is anablepsoides hartii how do you rear these?
What should the water conditions be?
What temp do you keep the boxes and what plant is that, thanks!
Some Aussie Bloke The boxes are at around 23-25C. The plants in the shoe boxes are Anubias ‘nana’
@@KillieOrCory How long in the peat ?
@@paulfolding9021he said 2 to 3 weeks early in the video, I have heard others say 10, 6 and 4 weeks so it must vary!
Can u breed them without putting them in peat moss ????? Like is there an easier way ??
Which country are you in please
Can I use Coco Peat? Instead of Peat moss?
Yes you can. Coco peat will also work to incubate the eggs
How many days to incubate?

I have these fish and I just leave their eggs in a tank
The hatching time must be very variable, one guy on youtube said 10 weeks another 6 weeks, David Ramsey said 4 weeks and you say 2-3 weeks.
