Hi. I am new to fish keeping and found my pregnant danio freshly dead, so I managed to squeeze the eggs out and it was white circles. I did some research, and it should be yellow, so I put my male danio in the same tank with improvised breeding tank net so it can fertilize it. Do these eggs have a chance to survive?
 
I think it's unlikely I'm afraid - I think they would need to be in an egg-tumbler, and sounds like they may not be fertilised. But I've never bred danios, so don't get your hopes up, but maybe there's a way, hopefully someone like @GaryE or @Slaphppy7 will be able to give better advice!
 
No chance. The male may enjoy eating them though. Fertilization usually happens in a multi-fish race through the tank, and they have a strong tendency to eat the eggs before they hit the ground.
