How are your eggs? We have a few clear ones left here, so I'm hoping those are fertilized. Our angels started out eating the white eggs, then started on the clear so i put a fish net over the eggs to keep Fred & Wilma out - they're currently trying to find a way past the net.

EDIT: Ah, I see your new pic. cool.

They are good. They have eaten a lot of the white ones though. What kind of net did you put over yours? I think I may have to do the same thing. Good luck on your eggs as well

Well, since ours laid the eggs on the heater, I carefully slid it to the one side of the tank and used the heater I put in (since their regular one is unplugged) to let me stick a regular big fish net in the corner. The running heater keeps the net in place. I'm hoping this will help me catch the wigglers if we get them.

If the heater they laid eggs on weren't so long, i'd have put it in a breeder net and hung that on the side of the tank but no way to keep the eggs submerged on the heater in one of those.

That is a really good idea. I have been trying to figure out how I can get the eggs off of my filter, but I am afraid to disturb them. I just don't want any wigglers to get eaten if they hatch while I'm not home.

My Angels laid eggs again today aswell. All looks good so far, there is one white egg and the parents are doing a good job keeping other fish away and fanning the eggs.

This is the third time they have spawned so lets hope they get the hang of what they are supposed to do!

Our female finally figured out a way past the net to the eggs, she was SO determined! I managed to save 5 good eggs and they are developing. They should be free swimming in the next day or so and ready for BBS -- I hope.

How are your angels' eggs doing, MissMTS?
