Kribs Eggs!

Oh and the flashlight won't help because of the angle it is at. I just can't get the light in. I am going to rotate the shell when this is over. How long does it take until they hatch? I've read things ranging from 2 days to 6 days.
 
Okay I posted this already, but it didn't work for some reason. The angle of the shell they are in is such that a light is useless. I am going to rotate the shell after this is all over with. Also how long until they hatch? I've heard things ranging from 2 days to 6 days.
 
Anywhere from 3-8 days. I've had some hatch in 4 days, and some a week. Make sure you have lots of caves and hiding places - they will move the fry from place to place.
 
Yeah I had a dilema where I couldn't find the male, so I took everything besides my sponge filter and 2 live plants out. Bought another one, and found the first. I was and am confused about that one. I just put the caves in now and some new plants I bought from Foster & Smith.
 
LOL. They are great at hiding! I call my krib tank "The Ghost Tank". I can see them peeking out from inside the vases and caves and under driftwood. The only time I really see them is when my female starts dancing around for the male. Or chow time. :)
 
I agree to that! They can fit in some really weird and tight places!
 
Here's one of my female with the last bunch 'o babies. I know I have a pic of the pair together, I'll have to hunt it down.
