Tank Temp And Eggs

[Myuu]

My brand new german blue rams have already spawned just last night, and I was so happy to find that the eggs made it through the night.... Then I looked at my thermometer. I think the heater broke yesterday and the tank temp went down to 70 F. Will the eggs survive? I could only pull heaters out of other tanks for the moment; and unused 50 watt unsubmersible and a 25 watt from my betta tank (he'll be okay, he's tough >>). I needed to go to the petstore for something else today, anyway, but I'll have to wait til afterschool

They will be fine if it only dropped to 70. It may have lengthened the time for them to hatch however. Watch for fungus on the eggs just in case a few have spoiled so that it dosen't spread to the rest of the eggs.
