I believe these are Cory's eggs

I suspect they belong to either my albino corys or the clown loaches

Could this be the mother?

These pictures was taken last Tuesday, Sept 21, 2004. As of lastnight, the eggs seems to have a fuzzy mold around all of them. I've taken some and place them in a hatching bin and left some that were on the plants alone. All of them all came our fuzzy looking.

Any idea if they are still good and how long will they hatch, if they ever hatch?

By the way, the water is approx 78F - 80F. The PH is approx 8.0 - 8.1 because of the shells and corals.

In the tank I have

3 Albino Corys
4 Bronz Corys
4 Clown Loach
1 Pleco

Currently Ammonia is 0.25 and nitrite is approx 1.0 (just did a 25% approx water change last Thursday.

I am planning to add two or three small red tail sharks sometime next week.

Those are Cory eggs. It sounds like they have fungused. Based on your photo the eggs did not look fertile. You will have to try again. If the eggs were good it would take about 4 days for them to hatch. Not likely to be Clown Loach eggs.
