Blaha Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 (edited) Are these eggs? I just did some major changes to a tank including a huge water change, rearrangement, and removing my Tiger lotus that was taking over the entire tank. Then 2 days later I wake up to these things everywhere. I have emerald corys, kuhlis, hillstreams and neon tetras. Is there anything I should do to help them hatch, or to know if they aren't viable? Edited September 18, 2022 by Blaha I just said tetra, but neon tetras is more specific Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppysnail Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 (edited) They certainly look like cory eggs. If they turn completely opaque white or fuzzy they are not viable. If they have a white or black dot in the center but remain semi transparent they are usually viable. Remove all non viable or fuzzy one to reduce the chance of the fungus spreading to viable eggs. Congratulations 🎉 Edited September 18, 2022 by Guppysnail 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSwissAquarist Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Could be from hillstream loaches, but they tend to lay eggs among rocks. My guess is your emerald corys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anjum Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Man must be something in the air! My Corys laid a couple eggs yesterday too. I figured they were too young still! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaha Posted September 19, 2022 Author Share Posted September 19, 2022 Update: I can't really tell good from bad, and also have some small string algae which doesn't help, but there is almost twice the eggs as yesterday! I lost count around like 150, so hopefully at least one makes it from the lot haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
