What eggs are these??

[jo.jacques]

I just saw these attached to my aquarium. Any ideas from which fish it might come from?

I have:

Tetra Serpae
Angel koi
Danios
1 gourami dwarf
1 ancistrus
Multiple Nerite snails

Thanks!!

Look like angel egg to me. Do you have morethen o angel in the tank?

[jo.jacques]

I have only one, but the angel koi seems to be very protective toward them... posdible that only the female layed them because the water temp has gone up (summer)? It is now at 28.

The way they are lain all in a line is characteristic of angelfish for sure.  I have never seem them lain on the glass though, but the fact that they will not be fertilized would leave them looking white like they are.  I thought the female would need some male hormones in the tank to start laying eggs, but I guess I have never kept only one angel before.  I'd say also because she is protective of the eggs, they are angelfish eggs.  Not all fish's eggs stick like that either.  I don't know what you have in the tank, but tetra eggs just scatter for instance, but cory cat's will look for a bare surface to lay their eggs onto, but not in a line like that, not to mention that the temp increase would discourage them from spawning.  My vote is the angel 98%.

I've had an angel lay eggs on the glass before! mine used to spawn on glass all the time...they were just like that! LOL

I think everyone is unanimous... should I remove them since there are not male in the tank?

[angelcraze]

They will just become full of fungus soon, might be a trauma for the mama.  Eventually though, they will be eaten.

Once light go out over the next couple of days the egg will be eaten. Don't wry
