i just got some mathaline (sp?) blue for my eggs because apparently it prevents fungus but im not sure how much to put in. anyone got any ideas?

The Fancy Goldfish book says to disinfect eggs using methylene blue, "dose the hatching tank until the water is a light "Windex" blue."

Doesn't give any exact amount per gallon.

Hope this helps a bit!

I AM USING THIS AT THE MOMENT. 10ML PER 11 GALLONS OF WATER. I HAVE USED THIS IN THE PAST WITH GREAT RESULTS.

i found something on a website today that said 5ml per 10gal which is about what ive done and there are NO eggs with fungus so far that i can see so thats good.
