Something Funny going on

[blang]

My Melini catfish hide all day long but something must have been in the bloodworms because all of a sudden, two out of the three of them were swimming all over the place. After watching them for awhile, I notice Ike was nibbling at Spike and they were both shaking while they were going up and down the glass. After awhile, I noticed 4 little eggs in the corner of the tank.

This is a ten gallon tank with one gold dust molly, a dwarf platy, serpae tetra and 3 cory cats. I have two live plants. Now, what do I do with the eggs?

Unless you can get the other fish into a seperate tank, I am sad to say that the eggs will get eaten. I don't think scraping the eggs off the glass is a particularly sterling idea as it is likely to damage them.

Others may have had success removing the eggs safely, I wouldn't know how to do it. If you really want to breed them you will do better with a seperate tank for the involved.

Let's say I get lucky and they hatch. Will the fry most likely be eaten also?
