Should I screen the eggs or not?

Paulmat are they eating the eggs? If so go ahead and screen they so you can see if they turn fertile. By putting the screen on them they will have to take care of them longer and if they turn into wigglers thats an extra 3 days they get at being parents. Doing so may trigger the parental instinct and they won't eat them when they become free swimming hopefully. Just be prepared for the outcome. I also use an egg crate divider in 2 of my tanks because the male get so rough with the females I separate them in the same tank. Don't worry the fry swim thru it and they both get a chance taking care of the babies. The screen you can buy at Ace hardware in the U.S in the house gutter department.
