    Think my sterbai cories just lay eggs on the wall of the tank near the filter outlet.
    This is not the first time they are doing it.
    Can anyone teach me a way to 'save' and have the eggs hatch safely?

    Thanks a million

    hi mivec
    it's easy bud, get a small container and fill it with water from your tank, then with your finger roll the egg so it sticks to your finger then put it in the container just carry on till youve got all the eggs.
    when you have them all put an airline in the container it only has to have two bubbles a sec and leave them till they hatch which is in 3 days,
    once hatched the fry will take a further 3-4 days to absorb the yolk-sac until that has happened please do not feed.
    once free-swimming they will eat bbs, micro-worms, and tetratabs.
