I've just fed my corys some pellets and bloodworms(about 20mins ago) and having a look to make sure everything had been eaten I noticed lots of clumps of 'stuff'. I scooped some of it up into a little plastic tub to have a closer look and it looks like eggs surrounded by jelly type stuff, some are white, some are yellowy and others are a v.light brown. Are these eggs or something else?

Nothing new has been added to the tank, I know it's not snail eggs as I had snails in my goldfish tank so I know what they're eggs look like, Plus my female has looked a little podgy underneath for about a week now but I started to think I was imagining it. I just want to confirm if they are eggs, I'm not going to try to raise them(well maybe a few) as it would be v.difficult to rehome them, so should I just take them all out or leave them?

Here's some pics, pretty blurry, but you can kinda see them;

hmmmm, to be honest from the pictures they dont look like cory eggs very much, could you try and get better pics? do you have macro on you camera? this would help.
 
I think uneaten food if they fall appart. Cory eggs are very sticky. Cory food pellets however, are hard for them to eat, so they normally wait for them to break down, and if they forget to go back for them they get a bit soggy and look just like that. Will take a pic of some in my tank later tonight when I charge my camera :)
