BlakeA101 Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 I have just gotten into hathing killifish and my hope is to breed them when they get large enough. Do many people on here have killis? I have so far hatched a handful in my first "wetting" and was wondering what kind of hatch rates were common so I know how many to expect approximately.

vince0 Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 it really varies. I have had bag give me 20+ eggs and bags give me nothing. Since those times, I now dry my peat prior to packing and look for eggs in the dried peat. they actually pop right out with a good light. With 20-30 eggs per bag, and those eggs being fertile, you would probably see at least 50%. Growing them out can be tricky, I have had issues with the fish killing each other until im down to a single pair. I don't know if that's how they work in nature, or just my tanks...
