Regular Member jamisskat Posted January 11, 2008 Author Regular Member Share Posted January 11, 2008 I put in the spawning mops.. there's eggs all over the bottom of the tank.. I cant save those can I? I know bringing her indoors helped since it bumped the temp up to 76 from 50.. Ive also been feeding extra protein pellets..

Regular Member glitterfish Posted January 11, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted January 11, 2008 Woo! Eggs are exciting! I was able to save some of mine stuck to the sides of the tank by gently scraping them off with a soft net or credit card. GENTLY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member nick11380 Posted January 11, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted January 11, 2008 The eggs that aren't stuck can be syphoned out and hatched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member goldfishgrateful Posted January 12, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted January 12, 2008 THAT"S GREAT!!! I would love to get little fry of my own, but i only have room to keep like one.....and in my little town....It might be hard to give them away to "fishworthy" people..... Plus most of my fish are either too young.....or all male................ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
