Default Need Help - I got Green Tiger barb eggs ( I think )

Just came back in from work and I have what looks like eggs from some Green
Tigers that I have stuck to the outside of the Internal filter on a Rio 400.
I am assuming that they are from the the Tigers as there is a Green Tiger
hovering near by.

Can the eggs be safely transplanted to a breeding tank, or should I leave
them in place as the eggs wont last long due to tankmates ?


Suggestions please and thank you.

do you have any bottom fish in that tank such as Corydoras. Tiger Barbs
scatter their eggs, they are not adhesive.

If you dont want to fuss with fry, leave them in the tank. If you want
to try and raise them, move them to another tank. I personally cant
give more info than that.

As I was writting this, I thought, maybe you want some caviar this
evening

Well whoever in the tank put them there, there is already one fry kicking
about in the tank i moved the eggs to. Still got a big yolk sack on it so
its no long in hatching, need to get some infusora sorted out today.
