Check it out, my female paired up with the male I bought and laid some eggs. they've been doing there thing, defending the nest and what not, but I was just curious if the eggs were even gonna hatch. Here they are.

Also, just for fun, here's the male through my horribly scratched up foggy tanks walls.

Tell me what you guys think. I hope they hatch. This is pretty exciting for me.

looks like it for now but if they dont turn white in about 1-2 days they are forsure fertile if they stay a tanish color by the 2-3rd day they should have 2 little black dots on the egg
 
well hopefully ur lucky and ur male fh is firtle nice fh btw gooluck keep us posted
 
Eggs look fertile to me. Since they are flowerhorn you will need to add some fugus treatment asap. I lost 3 broods due to fungus until I used Mardel Maroxy and only about 20% Turned white as opposed to all of the eggs. Fungus can destroy fetilized eggs as well. I though my male was infertile since nothing ever hatched. Methylene Blue is good too. For some reason FH seem to be more susseptable to fungus on the eggs than other fish. Hope they hatch for you. Good luck.
