So i found some eggs today laying on the substrate and i thought i would try to hatch the eggs myself.

I used a tea stainer and put it underneath my sponge filter so it would constantly get new water, keep them moving and get oxygen.
I was wondering if something like this would work?
Also do i still need to spray the eggs daily with water?

I have uploaded a picture of how it looks

Thanks for you help :)

Yeah they are as it underneath the output of the sponge filter

Also how long will it take for the shrimp eggs to hatch like this?
 
Can anyone tell me how i can get rid of dead/white eggs without harming the other eggs?
 
If the eggs are not sticking to each other you could try and suck them up with a fine pipette. I am assuming that the unfertilised eggs may get fungus and affect the fertilised eggs, so I can see why you want to remove them.

Because there are 1 or 2 that are more brighter yellow then others which I think are bad but most of them are dark yellow....

Should i remove the two bright yellow eggs as they my harm the rest of the eggs if they are dead or have fugus on them....

Please help asap
 
I looked at pics and none looked bad, are you sure they are eggs?
I will also say I have no clue what they are from.
Do you know what they are from?
 
Yeah they are eggs...why what do they look like to you?
They are shrimp eggs
 
Does anyone know how long it takes for baby cherry shrimps to be properly visible after they hatch?

That's hard to say unless you have shrimp hatch in a plain tank with no hiding places. I can spot baby RCS when they are about 2mm long, they are hardly orange at all, almost translucent. They are probably no more than a few days old but very hard to spot.
