Here are some eggs I found yesterday morning. The tank has 9 albino cory's, but it also houses 7 fancy goldfish who LOVE eggs for breakfast, so I am lucky to have saved these guys! There were three on the glass of the aquarium as well, but when I went back to get them, they were already eaten!
Right now I have the 15 eggs (originally 16, but one has turned white/fungus?) in a half full 10 gallon with two air stones and a heater. I am keeping the temperature the same as the parent tank, 72F, for ease of water changes, using water from the parent tank. I also have 1/2 teaspoon of methylene blue (as per the directions on the bottle) in the water to prevent the spread of the fungus to the still viable eggs.
At first I thought they were goldfish eggs, but thankfully I've discovered they are cory eggs. I don't know what I would do with more goldfish!
As you can see, these were laid on the outflow of my FX5 filter nozzle. I'm very excited, I just love corydoras!

Long as the egg isn't moldy, it's probably still viable. I'd just leave it unless you see it start to fungus over.
