I have albino cories... they have laid eggs before but they got eaten or whatever before i remembered to try to pull them from the tank.. this time.. one batch actually was in a corner and didnt get eaten... so I pulled them just a few minutes ago.. Id like to know if any one has any photos of both fertile eggs and non fertile eggs.. and what all I need to do to hatch them if they are fertile.. I know this batch may not make it.. cus this is a first for me..LOL... I will try to get some pics of them in the plastic tub i put them in .. i only put about an inch of water in it.. cus i read a article saying that they need to be near the water to swim up and get air... But i noticed.. the eggs werent sticky... I mean they were stuck to the glass but wouldnt stick to my finger.. they felt kinda hard to me.. they area tanish color.. every bit of help is welcome.. thanks..Katherine

I've heard that fertilized eggs are a browny/orange colour, while un-fertilized eggs are white. I've also heard that when Cory eggs are first laid they are soft, and then over the next cple of hrs they harden.
