eggs hatched what next
my 3 red eggs hatched today and yesterday although 2 are still pipping at the moment,the first is fully out
question is when do i need to transfer them across to there tanks is it ok to use spagnam moss as substrate as ive lined the tank with this and find it very prickly ?,i take it the temp needs to be the same and humidity needs to be kept high due to dehydration |

Hi Chris, just wanted to say fantastic news so glad some of the eggs made the journey. Someone mentioned you posted about this so had to pop on. Sorry I missed your last message, a bit late to answer now they're making an appearance! I've had no free time recently to get on here, but Chris (RFM) will always have sound advice to offer as and when you need it. Really is a beautiful hatchling, hope you have many more in the future.
