mcsx Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 gotta say those look awfully like bristlenose eggs, your probably right on, parents must have blown em out of the cave, you could chuck em in a tumbler might be fertilized if your lucky.

cpfc Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 They look like Bristlenose fry to me but other fish may have similiar eggs. Our BNs really had eggs like it. We left them in there with dad who looks after the eggs and fry far better than we could. The eggs hatched and wrigglers were there. None there now but they maybe in the cave with dad. Either that or eaten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcloughlin2 Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Yes they are bristlenose eggs. They are quite tough though so providing the tumbler they are in isn't stirring them up too much I'm quite sure they will hatch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam_J Posted July 5, 2010 Author Share Posted July 5, 2010 cheers , i made a few slight adjustments and put an airstone through the top and a bit of mesh on the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
