Well my Bangaiis mated and the male "was" holding eggs for about a week. Tonight, after about 30mins, I trapped him and tricked him into my breeder net. Well he must have been way too stressed, because soon after he spit out all the eggs . I immediately removed him from the net, afraid he would eventually eat the eggs.
My question is, will they still hatch :( ? They seem fine and my thinking is that the male only holds them to protect the eggs from predators. They should already be fertelized and mature in the net by themselves, no?
Anyone with any experience with this?
