My fem rd fader laid eggs last week. She was very protective of them and even tried to bite my hand during a water change! The eggs were never fertilized (no male). After one day a small percentage of the eggs turned white. More turned white over the next couple days and she apparently ate most of them. Do the eggs turn white because they weren't fertilized? I think they had fungus but I'm not sure what it looks like. How do you prevent fungus? Also can they tell which eggs are fertilized and remove the ones that aren't? How often will she lay eggs and what conditions (i.e. temp,ph,in tank w/males) will cause her to produce eggs? I just want to learn as much as I can about the breeding process BEFORE I make an attempt at breeding her so any input will be greatly appreciated!
