I wouldn't move them at 48 hours. You might be able to get away with it but I wouldn't do it. There probably isn't a set time as to how long you can keep them out of the water. What is it that you are trying to do exactly?

hi Eddie i wanted to shift them in breeder tank 29 gal , can i add M B plz advice

I am not gonna say yay or nay as I do not want to be responsible for the outcome. Its a risky decision and it could work but you need to be swift about it. And yes, you can add meth blue but why? Are they fungused over?

I think the MB wont help at this stage. Anti fungals are best used right after breeding or before breeding. I think the idea is that the egg hardens and seals after an hour or so, maybe sooner. just a thought.

MB is best used within a few hours of eggs being laid.
