I went to turn off the lights in my 37 gallon and I saw some little white things on the filter intake. The intake part is about 2" across and then the tube in the centre. There are about 100 eggs. I just hope the plecos don't eat them. I am so excited. I will have pics asap.

Can you please give me advice on what to do mine are in the middle of laying their first batch of eggs right now

Sabi

From what i know, the first time the eggs are very unlikely to make it.
Give them a few more tries and they should raise some fry.

If they are breeding then they are old enough. But it does take a couple of tries before they get it right.
