So when my female jag decided to go Nadya Suleman on me, the male, although smaller, is beating the crap out of all my tank mates. They've taken over the middle of the tank. The easy fix there is separating them however...I have a 20 gallon wide to but them and their egg covered rock in. The problem is they bit me twice when I try to get it and put themselves between the rock and my hand. The rock is too heavy to pick up any other way. When they bite me it's not like it hurts to any major degree but it scares the piss out of me and makes me splash water all over myself. The first time they did it, I elbowed the inside glass of the aquarium and bonked my funny bone something terrible. Is there anyway to overcome this?
2nd, some of the eggs (maybe 20?) are white while some are still the weird brownish/tanish/yellowish color. Does this mean that they were fertilized?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've never had baby fish before and this is all very new to me.

That's awesome. Good luck.
