Very interesting, Harro... I'd like to know if this has worked with any other
Sahulian fishes, apart from Pseudomugils... could it make the eggs easier to
transport?

Regards, ANdrew Boyd

Some years ago an article was published here in Germany about the
storing of eggs of Pseudomugil gertrudae in slightly wet peat. Many
killifish friends are also interested in the P. species and this was
one of them. He reported that he stored the eggs which had been
layd during one week for three more weeks. When he then put
water on the peat the fry shall have hatched within a few hours
(like in Nothobranchius). That's what he wrote, has anybody
out there any experiences with this method?
