and oscars are good at at easting their own eggs too, anything distracting and they cry abort! abort!

I definatly saw that last time, that is why I am tring to give them their space. I was going to do a water change today also, but now I will wait a couple days jost so I don't stress them out.
 
they look unfertilized to me too, but they will eventually get it. good luck. and keep us updated
 
Oscar eggs look different from many other cichlid eggs. They tend to be more opaque than translucent, even when they are fertile. It looks like you have quite a few good eggs. That does seem to be a rather small clutch though. Good luck with the hatch.
 
:nilly: I am getting a lot of mixed opinions, some people are saying that there are some fertile ones, and some are saying that none of them look good. I am just going to wait and see what happens. I will keep everyone posted on what happens. I have a feeling that some are fertile though, today when I got home I notice black spots in some of the eggs (I guess eyes), but then some of the eggs have fungus on them also. I am just hoping that if there are some good ones that the fungus dosent start attacking them too, I'll just have to wait and see though. Someone mentioned that it looked like a small clutch, I agree, I have seen pictures of other oscars eggs and there are a lot more than what I have. Could this be becuase this is only their second spawn? Thanks everyone for taking a look at my thread though, I apreciate everyones input.
