Hi, my nijsseni decided to breed yesturday, last night some of the eggs started to dissapear so I grabbed the 1/2 pot she had layed in and put it in a breeding net in the same tank with a airstone, my question is after the fry hatch and are wiggers do you leave the airstone going take it out?

The mom might have just been removing infertile/fungused eggs. Without her removing them, the fungus will spread to healthy eggs. I've been told removing eggs to a bucket with bubbler and methyl blue (fungacide) added is the way to do it artificially. If any make it I would leave the bubbler in just because water movement through those breeding nets is minimal.
