taking eggs away question

["The Haunted" <theoutlaw_torn@hotmail.com>]

Hello,

I was wondering how important temp/ph/etc is when taking eggs away from 
parents. My Apistogramma elizabethae laid eggs within 3hours of being put 
into the 10 gallon display tank i set up. The female usually eats the eggs 
because the male stresses her out. At least in their old 15 gallon tank 
which just had them in it. Perhaps with the neon tetras and coral red pencil 
fish she wont eat them. Anyway... If I were totake the eggs away how 
important is it ti get the water from the tank I am taking it from.
Bothtanks were filled with a combination of RO and tap water. Which has the 
same readings anyway...
Can I drain like a couple gallons from the tank the eggs are laid in and 
then put them in another 10gallon tank which already has like 4 gallons  of 
water. Or will the mixing of new water kill them?

thanks
coby
