Got your PM and returned reply as follows:-

Thats fine no-one knows for certain what or how many fry will hatch from a certain batch,on first wetting, at least you've got something. Leave the peat, try to seperate the fry to another tub after a day or so, then redry the peat (as in the text in the post) then you can re wet the peat again after a week or so. Usually I would re-wet the peat a total of 3 times before I presume that all thats gonna hatch will have hatched by then.
This is the most critical time in the fry's life, getting enough food and of the right type to accomodate their needs. After day 3 newly hatched BBS 3x4 times a day. Keep things clean. Dont forget a few grains (I said grains not grams) of cooking salt (not table salt) in the corner of the fry tub will guard against Velvet disease.
