Update: a few eggs turned white which means they weren't fertilized or died. However the other eggs are well. If you look closely you can see the eyes have developed. I'll wait till they start to move to relocated them

The eggs hatched. Transferred most of them to the nursery tank. There is still like a dozen i couldn't get out of tge main tank with the parents but i got like maybe 50 out. Here they are wiggling around with their yolk sac

Will do

So cool! Thanks for the updates

Thanks. Pretty exciting for me too ?. I couldn't separate the dead eggs from the fry. They're all stuck together. I've increased the air filter power to increase water movement a bit. I will remove the dead eggs as soon as they are free swimming which i guess will happen tomorrow morning or afternoon. Managed to keep the heat almost identical to the tank the were laid in.

You can try a turkey baster to blow the fry and dead eggs away fro each other then suck the dead ones up with it.
