So.. Yesterday Dee (female convict) laid another batch of eggs.. I just scraped them off and rinsed them down the sink - she didn't really seem to care.
Today. Taco (pink female convict) laid eggs. Went to scoop out the flower pot, and she tried to bite me, and she's terrorizing everything in the tank. I got the pot out, and rinsed her eggs down the drain.
(I have no males - they're not going to be fertilized, but see no point behind the additional stress of them getting vicious in my tank).
This is the 5th or 6th time they've laid eggs - usually, I leave them, and let them dispose of them - HOWEVER, they're getting older, and experimenting with their "mean" trait. (Kids grow up so fast).
They're in a 60 gallon tank (3 female convicts, 1 male JD, and 3 spotted pictus)...
Any chance she's going to stop going mental any time soon, or should I rehome her for a little bit?
