Eggs in my tank? - update

Thanks for all the replies. It was useful information but, alas,
nature had other ideas. The eggs are gone and there's not a fry to
be seen. Maybe I'm not looking hard enough - I'll keep an eye on it.
Sadly, the pleco died, though I'm sure this is a coincidence.

Another, related question - I returned from a two week vacation on
Sunday to find these eggs. While I was gone, the furmace quit
working for three days, and I was told that the temp in the house
dropped to 42 degrees during that time. The tank's heater was
working, but I suspect it couldn't keep up with that. Also, my son
(the house sitter) told me that he forgot to feed the fish for two
days in a row last week. Perhaps this was partly to blame for the
pleco's demise. But, aside from that, I've been led to believe that
fish can be coaxed into laying eggs by adjusting their water
temperature and feeding patterns. Could this be one of the reasons
that the fish laid these eggs at this time?


Many cories spawn in response to a temperature drop (I'm told this is a
biological response to spring mountain snow melting in South America).
I've gotten my paleatus to do this on a few occasions with a cool water
change (60 degF water change of 50% on a 74 degF tank).
