What kind of eggs are these

[El chapo]

I've got pygmy Corys , zebra Danios, ember tetras , some young golden rams , an endler , should be 2 sparkling dwarf gouramis havent seen both at once in a couple weeks, ramshorns , assassin snails , ghost shrimp, a mystery snail, a three spot forest halfbeak and there might be a nerite been a while since I saw it

This is the position of the sponge before I found the eggs

I vote for pygmy cories

tetras or danios but you need to get rid of the snails or they will eat all the eggs.

if they are tetra eggs, they are photosensitive and won't develop if there's a light on the tank.

Could they be the rams one of the males appears to be tending to them, they're only an inch or so in size so I originally ruled them out as a possibility because of this but I don't know much about them as I've never kept rams before

Rams tend to lay eggs on rocks and the eggs are slightly oval shaped. Those eggs are round and on plants so danios or tetras are the most likely parents.
You might have a broody ram and he wants to be a dad so is caring for the eggs, or he's getting ready to eat them.

the eggs are on the gravel and the male ram is definitely tending to them whether their his or not is up for debate I've spent a while watching him and another that appears to be the female which has her tube thing down whose also hanging around the spot

do you have any hard flat surfaces in the tank. rams would breed on that if you have some rather than the gravel

I've got stones in the tank but none that away from the open area of the tank whis where the danio hang out.
The eggs are tucked away between some grass a couple cycled sponges and a piece of drift wood.

I had the same looking eggs in my previous tank all clumped together on a single leaf.

I only had 10 Penguin Tetras in the tank at the time. After a day of 2 they were all gone. I assumed they were eaten

There's plenty of flat stones n the tank and the rams should have spawned on them. Maybe your rams are different

and that is why I had success breeding tetras in a tank without a light (which wasn't actually intentional, lol)

Yep either the rams are mentally handicapped or thier ultra retarded and picked up a bunch of Danio eggs and are taking care of them. I know their not the ember tetras and the gouramis aren't it cause a war would have broke out over the eggs so their either rams, Danios , or pygmy corys
