So what to do if your male has ate most of your eggs.well Its happened
to me and it feels so bad,the best thing to do is remove the male from
the tank.But what to do with the eggs.Its called artificial hatching.Fist
things first make sure that that he not just cleaing them or pickng them
up(you will know if hes eating them I had 100-200 before I went to bed
and woke up to ten)Well what you need to do is get a small container
and fill it with water till it floats in the tank without tipping over
next use somthing to get the babies of the bottom of the tank,I use
a clean eye dropper and grab them and put the in the container.I wait till
they are hatched and start to feed vinegar ells.Once you start to feed
make sure you clean the container everyday,to clean I use a piece of air
line hose.Make sure not to suck any up I do this till they are free swiming
and good on there own
