    they will probably get eaten and sucked up into filtration. You will have to move to breeder tank

    Thanks brother, i'm pretty excited. It took them about 6 months to lay, but its only been about 2 weeks since the last time. Once they figured it out, they got pretty good at it. LOL

    If you can, when the eggs grow eyes, try to attach a brine shrimp net over the eggs. When they hatch, you may be able to retain a good portion of them in the netting to move them into a breeder tank. You can also try buying a small piece of ceramic tile for them to lay the eggs on. I just bought a little 2" wide by 4" long piece of tile at Lowes for this. I got a plain glazed piece, not colored, just the plain off white natural color. I may scruff off the glazing though to remove any chemicals they used to glaze it.

    Yeah I may try that, I thought about slipping something in for them to lay on, just dont want it to be too big or out of the way, it may cause them to stop laying.

    Put a piece of tile in at night when the lights are out. If they are spawning, they will continue to do so. They will see a clean smooth surface they can lay on and will gladly use that.
    The piece I bought was 1.5" wide by 4" long. If I can find a link to it, I'll post it.
