What shouls I do with the eggs?

Post by Mixalis »

Hey everyone,
My sp3 has just laid eggs,I am going to put them in a breeder box inside the aquarium.So I was wondering...should I put snails in the breeder box(to eat slime from bottom) or should I put sand??
Thanks in advance :)

Have the "dad" kicked the eggs out? If not, I'd be very tempted to leave them in with the dad, rather than take them away. Dad usually does a much better job than any of us humans (of course, both fish and humans are individuals, and some of us are worse than others, but generally the fish are better than humans).
