Whos Eggs

[roz568]

hello i have woken up today and found loads and loads of eggs in my tank but the only non live bearers i have are a large plec and 3corys and 4 black neon tetras.non of my tetras were looking extra big either.does anyone have any pictures of tetra eggs to see if these are wot i have.they feel like grains of salt and are single eggs but loads.any ideas plz

i think a picture of the egg could help however if they are about 2mm in size and whiteish in colour i would bet on the corys....im sure the experts will be here to confirm what it is you have mind

the eggs aint much bigger than a grain of salt,they aint sticky and they are white/clear.ive managed to put sum in a breeding trap coz all my other fish were eating them

im with razor, i think it has to be the corys, hope they hatch watch them and see if they turn white it they do throw them away as they have fungus, letss hope some hatch. di

Hi roz568

I'll move your thread over to the Corydoras section where the members will be happy to help you raise some fry. They should be hatching in 3-4 days so you will need to remove them from the community tank and make plans for raising the fry.

Here's something to read to get you started:
