Question
hi im wondering if you can help me one of my oscars has just layed eggs in my 6ft tank its hovering above them how do i go about moveing the eggs so i can produce baby oscars without my other fish eating them ???????

Answer
Hey Carrie ann

well the best thing you can do is take the eggs out by scooping them into a cup and place them in another tank and feed them crushed flakes or infusoria or baby brine shrimp.  But remember there could be over 200 eggs and if they all do survive you will have a lot of oscars!!

Hope all this helps and good luck!!!   Jack :)
