Are these eggs fertile?

[Mark Allred]

My first BN spawn. The male has been tending these 4 days, and pushed them out 2 hours after I moved him to his own tank.
Are these eggs viable? I thought they are supposed to be orange or yellow?

Sorry to disappoint you but I'm afraid they are not fertile. From my experience with these guys, it seems common that this happens the first time around. It's like they have to learn what to do or something. Good luck.

Thanks Luis.
I would have assumed they would have fungused right away like my Angelfish eggs do.
But they didn't look right.

Hi,

these are only the eggshells.
Check the cave for the fry (assuming the male did not eat them)!

Cheers,

yeah the fry have already hatched!

Hey Mark, just curious regarding this spawn. Was there any fry in the cave with the male ??
Good luck.
