cheers chris the moss is spagnam moss (think thats how its spelt) but i have leaves etc in there from where its been picked,i brought 20kg of the stuff as was being sold as ok with torts,its fine for my adults but unsure on the young

when do i transfer them from the incubator to a tank the first tort out has absorbed the yolk sac but is still slightly sticky ,the other 2 that are still pipping will prob be a few days as i can see the one still has a quite large egg sac inside the shell
first out weighs 20grms
