Okay, this might not seem like an emergency, but technically I don't have long anyway.


After the builders and left and my Dad came back from Sainsburys everything was normal when my Dad called me to the Fish tank for an unexpected surprise. There were eggs stuck to the right and left of the tank. This was indeed a surprise as I hadn't expected such a thing, though I expect it's from the Male and Female Bronze Corydoras, as the Female had looked rather fat according to my Dad. Although he also said that one of the Glowlights had looked rather fat. Anyway, they are little transparent eggs, some with black dots in them.


I have an Aqua Qube 5 gallon tank that is not set up and would require a heater if they do hatch, but I'm worried that would need time to cycle. Also as no doubt the other Fish in the aquarium(consisting of Tetras) are planning whether to have them as a side dish with Tetra Flakes or Complete, I was wondering what I should do about the eggs? It'll only be a while before they decide to eat them.


Any advice guys? Thanks.
 
You wont need to cycle the tank, just move some water and filter material from the currently running tank into the small one. You will need some really small foods for the fish though.
 
Invest in a heater for the 5 gal, run a little fluval one in your main tank to get the sponges matured.
If in future you decide to move the eggs you will need methylene blue to stop fungus growing on them.
