New Blue angel layed eggs tonite, PLEASE READ MY LAST ADDED POST ADDED JAN. 16 THANKS

[The Guy]

My new blue angel I got from April's on Saturday past paired up with one of my koi's right away and tonite the blue layed hundreds of eggs on the suction tube of my eheim filter, totally unexpected going to very carefully cover the inlet with a sponge tomorrow and also the AC 70 inlet as well. I have had some great advice already from members I have met on this site.
Do not want to get my hopes too high, but I hope I see some of them hatch out. Could be an interesting combination of color with these two. Any comments or advice is welcomed as this is all new to me.

I can't wait to see those little guys. Good thing I just set up my 38 gallon...Hehehe

Question: I understand if the eggs go white they are no good, if they stay translucent they are good, is this correct? Also they layed them on Monday Jan. 10 so if any were to make it to the hatched wiggler stage this would be in 3 days which would be Thursday Jan. 13, What do you feed these little guys?

[BubBleBee]

Look for eggs with hair growing on em...that means they've got fungus growing on them...try to remove those before the fungus spreads to the good eggs. I too have heard that if the egg is white it's no good and agree as i have had my danio's hatch and still see white eggs at the bottom which I believe them to be not fertilized. As far as food goes...you can either crush up really fine ur normal flake food, secondly purchase some liquifry....and I've heard freshly hatched brine shrimp.....Good Luck...and perhaps if you end up selling any...I may pick up one...cuz I luv blue....

They don't eat for quite awhile. First wiggler then on the bottom with a yolk sac then powder form fry food. First bites by hikari will work or
Live baby brine.

Feed them monday. It's generally a week from eggs to feeding and also make sure the tank's warm(80 degrees). Let us know how it goes!!
