    They are very easy to hatch, get yourself a small container with light aeration (use an air stone myself), room temp if your house temp is in the low 70's. Some First Bites, baby brine shrimp, decapsulated brine, walter worms basically anything for small fry. When you get your eggs there should be date on them of when to place them in water in the meantime store them in a cool dark place just don't forget them LOL. If you get more than one species be sure to mark your containers since alot of the females killifish are so similiar they are nearly impossible to tell apart.

    Hope this helps

    sounds pretty easy, like a tupe-a-ware bowl or some thing my house is usually around 75-78

    Even a butter dish works LOL or the $1 store 2 for a buck deep bowls, shoe boxes are another great hatching container you can drill a small hole in the top for the air line to fit thru. Also I like to throw a sprig of java moss or fern in there since not all of them will hatch at the same time gives the smallers one a bit of a place to hide.
