lol. Fish always spot eggs or small fry at the same time as you. I spotted some tiny baby platys once and was just going to get a net when the danios nipped over and ate them all:wb:

Some of my L144 share a tank with some albino peppered corys that breed regularly, I've got to be like lightening to get any eggs out before they get munched. Fingers crossed for your next spawn.

Cheers
