    I got rid of mine by crushing them against the glass and letting them get eaten by the shrimp. It was making my friends sick to hear it =3 I also deal with the ramshorn snails that way.

    WELL! I've gotten so attached to the marbled cray that I kept her in her own tank, and now I've got a clutch of eggs too. I made space in the 40 by moving some fish in the divider to another. So I'll let her live in a fishless tank a while. See how she does like this.

    So....... I'm not sure what to do about them?
    I guess once they mature and start to come off of her she'll go back into he tank and they'll get slowly picked off by the guppies. Any that survive get to keep going.

    I'm sure the guppies will pick them off. And from the little I've read/heard of them and eggs I gotta warn ya that they take LONG to get of a semi-descent size. But defin good luck with her!

    At a min you can use them as a source of food. If ya knew someone interested in them locally you could sell them off it you wanna wait until they become of size.

    I have a little tube that pushes fresh water into the container they are in. It's working, but not at satisfactory as I had hoped. I lost one egg.
    I based it's design on the old fish hatchery methods from way back when.
