Just found some eggs in my tank today I have no idea which fish layed them but I think the blue one with vertical stripes did since it has been burrowing lately.

Blue blob in the first pic is the eggs. I need to learn some photography techniques! :roll:

I don't know about cichlid eggs but the eggs in your pic look suspiciously like hitchhiker snail eggs. Do you have snails in the tank?
 
HAHAHA!! I just put in a ramhorn snail two days ago! Geez! :roll:

Thanks for the lesson! How long before they hatch and should I leave them in my 90 gl tank?

:p
 
Your eggs should hatch in 2-4wks (yeah, it really does vary that much). Where you hatch them is up to you. If you want to have them in the 90, leave them there. You can always move them later.
