Our eggs arrived March 19th. We have approximately 250 eggs that are in the eyed stage, it is estimated that they will hatch 3 to 5 weeks after their arrival.
We have set-up our aquarium to imitate a river habitat for our eggs. The students selected rocks from the beach, that we thoroughly washed, we cut insulation to fit around the aquarium and the aquarium cooler unit is set to keep the water at 5 degrees celsius. The insulation works to keep the temperature low and to make a cozy darkened habitat, just like a river sheltered by trees along its banks.
