qwerty99 Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 hi, guys, I am wondering what will happen to the bbs eggs would it hatch or what if use salt with iodine content? previously had no idea to not use those salt, and have used but none of the bbs hatch (the bbs egg is rather old). So please enlighten me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishbites Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 Most iodised salt I've seen available is just for table salt and very fine so would have anti-caching agents and who knows what in it.... so I wouldn't use it myself but if it was a clean salt with higher levels of iodine it wouldn't hurt to try it with a small amount of bs eggs... let us know if you try it and it works though :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bettarazzi Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 I would try to get fresh bbs eggs. Old eggs generally don't work well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
