This is the 3rd time I'm trying to grow Aloinopsis malherbei from seed. And only now I realize that I should have been more patient. Apparently they germinate one month after sowing under my conditions (They probably germinate at the regular time under artificial lights, I don't know). Last time I've waited for a month and as nothing happened put one of the seeds (that I still could find) in the pot where I've just sown the new malherbei bunch. It hatched shortly after. And now, another month later, the seeds from the new bunch are starting to hatch. This way I have one seedling growing first true leaves and all the others just one day to one week old. The leaves look like Faucaria at this stage but it's normal. :)
Ah, I think I got it! I germinate different species in one pot and make a moist environment during they hatch. After a month I let the substrate dry a little because the other seedlings don't need it anymore - and that's when the A. malherbei hatch. They don't need as much moisture to germinate as others. Took me a while to get it. XD
