You probably should wait until they hatch. If you move them as eggs, you need to aerate them and pluck out the rotten ones yourself. The parents are usually good at that. Then, once they hatch out, you can move them. Much, much better that way IMO.

Thanx for suggestions... I'll surely do that...
but do you have any idea how many days will it take to hatch...?
thanx in advance...

2-3 days untill they hatch and then they are free swimmers, I think, when they are 1 week old.

Yep. At about 80º it takes around two days. If parents eat the eggs, just wrap the tank in black paper to reduce stress and their next spawn ought to succeed.

thanx for information...
i have one more question...
I had that idea of wrapping the tank with black paper, but I am wondering about my lights... should I leave it on as my plants need lights...?

 

[knifegill]

Yes, the lights are fine.

as far as tank setup, i liked the original layout... would have just added more plants to the sides to fill out the tank a little more...

Hey even I like the first set up but only problem in first set up was my angles couldn't swim freely, it seems like there was not enough space... so I had to change the lay out...

^ Ahhhhh... in that case, maybe some lower plants in the middle could work?
