Is This Normal

For the past month every other day i have been finding eggs in my tank, i have been rescuing as many as i could but none of them are hatching, how often do most fish lay eggs? and why are the ones i have rescued not hatching? any ideas would be great thanks.

What are you doing with the eggs once you've rescued them? Most eggs will go mouldy or not hatch if there is not enough movement/aeration. Try putting them in a breeder net over an airstone.

The other thought is that maybe they are not fertile?

Thanks i'll give that a try.

Thanks i'll give that a try.

what type of fish is laying the eggs? I only have knowledge with angels, but I am sure it's probably the same with most of them.
