Am I seeing eggs!?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
white eggs are dead fish, the clearer brownish are fertile. in all batches there will be some fetile and some unfertile.
 
Un upgrade is always a jce option, though it could be considered a good thing if the tinfoils start to pick off the fry. You dont want 500 little oscar mouths to feed at the best of times.
 
naw wat ur seeing is poop
jk lol its eggs congrats
 
sry to hear theyre infertile though i forgot to read the whole thred but at least you know theyre trying
 
Sorry they are infertile, but congratulations anyway! If you do get a pair though, and they get fertile eggs and fry, your oscars will keep your tinfoils at the very edge of the tank.
 
ok so I should get a tank just for the tinfoils then?
What about the babies? do they need to be separated from their "parents" ??

ok....just had to ask those questions...just because this is going to happen again....BUT....now that I am home from work.....the eggs are gone!!! :(
 
You can tell if eggs are fertile about 18-24 hours into the egg stage, but any less and they all look deceased.

You have 2 possiblities.

1. They have eaten the eggs and will lay more within the next 3 weeks.
2. The eggs have hatched and the fry are in a pit at the back of the tank and will appear in a day or two.
 
Coin toss... Fry alive or not... I wanna see some oscar fry

I want to to see some oscar fry to good if they are hiding.
 
i wonder if oscars will eat their babies after so long? or if oscar babies pick off the weaker smaller fry? hmm. i would be afraid they would mostly survive, and then be over run with oscars.
