EGSS?????

[raindream]

I have posted this at other forums, but nobody seems to be able to answer my question.........so cross fingers one of you can

When I woke this moring I found that my 10 gallon tank , stocked with 6 tetras and 2 albino cory, ...had around 10 little eggs??? I think, they are round with a white centre, with a almost clear substance around them, to me they look like eggs, ...Do you think they are eggs, if so what fish layed them , and how do I look after them

Corys will scatter eggs quite regularly. Maybe they are spawning, maybe not.

Watch your weather channel - when a low pressure system crosses your area (thunderstorm, etc...), it is often a trigger for them. Likewise, a cold water change simulates the onset of the rains and can also be a trigger.

If you want to try and raise the eggs, do some reading and look through some other posts about the various corys. They are not hard to breed and hatch, but raising the fry to a reasonable size can be difficult depending on your schedule.

Good luck and enjoy!

Are the eggs sticking to the surface(s) that they're on?
