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.
