Hi,
Today morning I saw some white coloured granules on Anubias leaf. I got 7 Ottos, 3-4 RCS, 2 Yamato and 5 Scarlet Badis in this tank. Are these possibly Otto's eggs? Few others are seen scattered on the bog wood and substrate. |

Hi Vipin,
Do you have any kind of snail in your tank?
Or..
Did you forget to include any other live item in your tank?
Regards
Sujo |

Hi Sujo,
I guess there are few pest snails. I had removed a couple of them the day before. So are these snail eggs?
I checked sometime back and could not find them.
Thanks

| Looks like eggs to me. Do you have any egglaying fish in your tank? |

I noticed some small white granules again and this time there were a lot of them. Besides I also saw assasins together, not sure if that was mating or into some fight.
Any idea what could these be?
Thanks

oops... Is it bad and harmful for the fishes? And can it be cleared?
I use some fert on a fortnightly basis. |
