Hi Peeps,

Why does everything that can happen, happen at once
Just got in at 4am after a long night shift, thought Oh I know .. will check on the fish as you do.
Tank1... Seemed ok , Went to see if heavily preggars guppy had dropped in tank 2, she had so chased the little blighters around and caught some which i planned on saving anyway.
Then found a lone molly in the other tank so thought hey ho , will save that too, so spent ages catching it without scaring it and thought finally can go have a beer and get some much needed sleep.....

Well I passed back through the hallway glanced into tank 1 again, a bit blury eyed by this stage and spotted eggs on the plant !!! Geezz what to do angels were pecking away like mad, so scooped plant out., put in a breeder with airstone and took pics, I dont know if they are angels or not but highly suspect them to be the peppered Corys ... I know it is hard to tell but do they look ok, I really cant be bothered now to trawl through researching but cant remember if white is good and brown is bad or vice versa cos there is quite a colour difference ??

this is my first time, and i dont expect any to survive, but had to try saving them !!!
thanks in advance for any replys a KNACKERED Becks. x.

They seem to me like definite cory eggs... the ones that are going a browny colour are the good ones, the white ones are not fertile and you should remove them or soon they will get fungus on them and it may effect the other eggs...

Im no expert but im sure another member will correct me if my info is wrong..

Good luck with them.

ps, dont know how big them slits are in the trap but when the eggs hatch, i think they may be small enough to get out..

Thankyou for replying,
Its a temp measure only thing I had, Gonna see if i have an ice cream tub
Shopld I remove the white ones right now, please say no ... Im knackered but if i must will go down do it straight away
Once again thanks for the reply saves me trawling through a load of posts
Becks.

Get some sleep, im sure they will be ok until you awake again...

I think some people add a bit of meth blue to stop fungus as well, (i think) im sure i read this.

Good Ok, Thanks.

Well,
I got up this morning and seem to have 3 babies, wriggling about the side of the breeder !!
May be I didnt catch the eggs as soon as I thought , But i could have sworn they were not there went I left the night before at 6pm ish??
All the other eggs look to be white? Should I remove them or give them a little more time, I did add the tinyest amount of Meth Blue This morning before going to bed.
Thanks
Becks.

Ignore me I am pretty sure on looking further they are guppies which have seeked refuge in the breeder I set up for the leaves!!!! DOH
Gonna try setting something better up asap

id say they are more likely to be the angels as peppers lay there eggs in groups ov about 5 all over the place not in big groups like bronze and other types of corydoras,
do they look like like cory wriglers becca320

Hi drewry
No I think they were guppies so just back to the eggs which have no wiggling!! LMAO
I would say half and half some are white and some bronzeish
I spose will just have to wait and see
there are only peppers in that tank no other corys cos they are in the other tank

lmao
they do look like cory eggs but the fact that you say theres only peppers in there make me say there are the anges eggs, as pepperd spread there eggs more widly around in little groups like this

let us know what they turn out to be

I will do , the more I look into it I think that they are the angels, Just the way they are formed down the leaf into lines?? if that makes sense
Anyway time will tell I spose if any survive
Thanks for the replies

your welcome
good luck with em

Thanks x.
And I thought there was only me up this time of night HA HA

Well , They are wiggling but still not sure what they are, still they have got this far so I am sure I will find out eventually!!!
