Oscar Eggs

[kgby13]

My Oscars have laid eggs again. I didnt have a camera before so I wasn't able to get a picture. My question is: are these aggs fertilized? I've bred many different cichlids but theye've always laid in a cave so I've not seen the eggs.

Oscars will normally choose a flat rock in the open as a spawning site. Congrats on the spawn.

Is that sand under the rock, or even more eggs? Congratz!

More eggs. Most of them missed the rock.

Wow! It's going to be a large brood if they all manage to hatch! I wish you luck on the rearing of the fry

Ive got a Pleco in there with them. He is almost 2ft long so too big for the other tanks. I cant find a divider big enough. What would be a good diy divider?

The eggs didnt last the night. This was the 9th spawn and only one has lasted more than a day.
