So i have a few clutchs in my invert tank and have just been leaving some to hatch, well one fell of the wall and i saw it getting pushed around by my filter flow. i grabbed it out of the water and noticed that it had ready to hatch snails in it, i could see the dark spots. So i got a little water in a plastic babyfood container to break the clutch up in. I have live babies for the first time!! Anyways i don't know what the safest way to transfer them into a breeders net is. I don't want to hurt any body but they can't stay in this little cup. They are so cute! Any Advice? Thanks!

Just pour them straight to the breeder net. Their shells are sturdy enough to be handled.

Don't feel bad. My male died a week after my female laid her first clutch. I waited 5 weeks for the clutch to hatch and after it didn't I swished it around and broke it up. I didn't get 1 baby. :( My female has not laid any clutches since then either. :(
