Ok I have a 9" male who is jet black with bright turquoise side markings and a neon orange stripe along his top fin. I have a 7" female who is also almost jet black with similar markings and dark black tiger stripes. I though before they had bred but never saw anything. Well yesterday I walked past my tank and notice my female looked alittle funny. She was solid black except for the top 1/4' from her tail to nose was pure white and her eyes are now solid white. Wish I had a camera capable of taking a picture because it is trippy looking. Well they have cleared thier corner of the tank of all the gravel and I looked and there are eggs everywhere. At first I was thinking about moving them to a seperate tank but they are way to aggressive and I just dont want to over stress them with sticking my hand in there. My question is besides sticking a divider up in my tank and sticking nylon over my filter intakes what else should I do? My mom who has raised them said something about some fungus stuff to change the water blue but couldn't remember the name. This is my first hatch so I want to try and get atleast 1 to live.
