I have just noticed these today on this plant, are these eggs they look like it to me, the fish i have in this aquarium are

1xfemale killish
2xangel fish
4xrummy nose tetras
2xcoolie loaches
1xmale bristlenose
2xpeppered corydoras

All fish are acting normal but the corydoras this week. Usually they are out all the time scavenging for food, but this week they have been hiding together in the cave behind the plants alot. and they are always together!!

here is the picture of these eggs???

Hi rocknurworld2006 :)

I can't recognize them from the picture, but they don't look like cory eggs. I'll move your thread over to Tropical Chat and perhaps someone will be able to help you out.
 
If the angels are near them they're angel eggs. They look like a first spawn from a pair, no neat rows like you would get from a pair with a few spawns under their belt.
 
these angels are only 3 months old . so it couldnt be them could it??and i thought angel eggs are a kind of yellow colour. any other ideas of what it could be. there isnt alot of them and i have caught angels eating them or what looks like eating them at least.
thanks chris
 
Those look like Angel eggs. Watch out, they will get territorial and try to kill all of the other fish in the tank. You may have to get a new tank just for the pair.
 
When Angelfish eggs are newly laid they start off as a creamy slightly yellowy colour but some of them turn white ( I have been told this is them dying off )

I had two Angelfish that used to lay eggs regularly every few weeks in nice little rows up the filter. The Angelfish would be very protective of them for about 24 hours but would then end up eating them all.

I never did get a single egg hatching :sad:
 
Yes, looks like a practice spawning to me. Those eggs are probably duds.

Are the Angels ignoring them? or staying near them?
 
ignoring them , their nearly all gone now there is still a few and they were all white! i thought angels were about 8-10 months before spawning. mine are only 3 months old!
