How are you keeping the eggs tumbled? I have an egg tumbler on hand just in case. I bought from a guy who breeds mouth-brooding cichids, and he uses these for tumbling eggs that he strips from the females.

Keep us updated. I recently stripped eggs from two dead green shrimps and the eggs fungused immediately.

Well good luck.
How did you remove the eggs, then? What did you put them in?
