Swimmin' with the fishes
So while feeding silver sides to our grow out tank I noticed these all over and it seemed more were coming from under a hiding tube as the fish made a commotion. Are they eggs, and from who?

Those are poly eggs, if you want to collect them from aquarium throw in a spawning mop. You can diy your own spawning mop from yarn , I used hunter green for my sen's which spawned for me 3 yrs ago.:) The challenge will be providing food for them which I can suggest from my experience. Microworms are the way to go for the fry their first month or so, BBS is good to but they prefer catching food that will be at the bottom right in sight. Just like the eggs the fry are tiny lol had to use a magnifying glass to see them up close. Btw suggested the spawning mop because the eggs will adhere to them once male scatters them.

Daphnia work well for my axolotl babes. They are easy to raise. There's a girl on eBay who sells colonies. Mine breed in 5g buckets like crazy. Cuadata cited them as being a healthier alternative to banana/micro worms.
