I cut a sock and put that on there to try and keep the light out, also decreased the airflow, Now with that being said it looks like there maybe some algae growing on them already.I will be following this closely. I hope you have success this time. Did you decrease the air flow?
Tried that the first time, don't know if it was a mix from the light, or to much tumbling and it hurt the eggs. I know I had 2 that hatched and it separated the body from the yoke. With the eggs actually being part of a row, it is hard to get movement, then when they hatch and separate you don't want to tumble them to hard, all trial and error right now I guess.When i see it done with fw eggs they are tumbling around quite a bit....dont know if itd be too much for them.
That's a decent number of eyesAnd so it starts, about to break out of thier eggs.
Can you post a pic of the one you're using?I don’t like that kind of tumbler. Try use one similar used on the biopellets with little flow, just enough flow to keep them in water suspension.
My buddy told me to maybe take a toothpick and split the eggs, might lose a few but at least I can get them separated to tumbleI tried this for months a few years back, I even have the same rocker from cobalt. I had no problem raising african cichlids with tumblers. I could never get the bangaiis to survive. Towards the end of my attempts with this I would let he fish hold for over a week then strip the eggs. It made no effect. I failed.
I will be following this thread, keep it going and gl.
You're awesome!At the moment I’m not breeding banghai and I can’t find the tumbler but I found this online and is very similar that I used. This is perfect. You can control the flow and this is perfect to keep the eggs clean and with enough oxygen. https://www.cichlid-forum.com/articles/egg_tumbler_2.php
Here they are now, looks like a few of them are starting to dieI tried this for months a few years back, I even have the same rocker from cobalt.

It's the cobalt egg rocker. I have a sock over it right now to try and keep the light outCan you post a pic of the one you're using?
But.... If, they are together, and I keep losing the whole fry, and separating them and only losing half the fry and being able to tumble them.... No? Not to sureDon’t try to separate them. You can damage the fry
