Question
My female red terror had breed with my flowerhorn she laid her eggs on a brick that place in the tank now after the 2nd day I switch the brick 2 a differnt tank I was worderinng why do I have diffent color eggs many are tan and some or white? Also I was wondering how long would it be if the female well spawn again

Answer
Hi Patrick,
  The white eggs are dead -- they probably were not fertilized properly by the male.  The female
could spawn again as soon as a couple of weeks, though there is no guarantee.
