DIY Egg Tumbler - Page 2 - Reef-Geeks

no filter. Not sure if it's clean or not. Going to check everything out before I do it again. I took it down last night. Eggs still looked good and had yolk. The eyes and everything developed. There was some gunk that grew in there. I really think it was bacteria. I need to check my medicine cabinet to see what I have or order something in. The methalene blue is more than likely the way I'm going to go.

They hatch yet?

I yanked them out Saturday evening. I wasn't feeling to good, so instead of letting them die fro lack of food, I turned them into food lol.

They all were viable though. I might have lost 2 out of 30. Not bad odds. I had a nice rolling bubble going. I don't think a fine or slow bubble would do it.

You will have plenty of opportunities with new eggs. I love the tumbler idea vs waiting for them to hatch in the tank. Youll get all of the bugs worked out Im sure.
