got some eggs...

by stingraysrule

and now I cannot clean the tank. Everytime I put my hand in there the fish bite.
You would think that they could have picked a better spot...... like INSIDE the driftwood where it is safe.
The eggs are never going to last. Bummed for the fish. The eggs seem to be slowly withering to none. Here are a few pics.

My clowns act the same way. How are the eggs disappearing? See if they are hatching at night. I thought mine were disappearing but i found out they hatch in the dark.

the mother ate some of the eggs, and a bushy nose pleco swiped up all the rest of them.
I am not sure why she laid them there, they are cave layers. What I read is it takes a few trys for the mother to get it right.
Wow on your pic. Got some babies?
