Betta Fish Eggs Problem

[coolprave]

i have a major problem there was a problem with my breeding pair

my female had a lump near here womb i think the male attacked her so i took her out of the tank and kept her in some water treated wit AQ Salt
i just checked on her and she is dead and the eggs are on the bottom of the tank so i took the eggs and put them in a small jar will these eggs survive

what is the best thing to do Please help

I don't know if I'm 100% correct but I think the eggs will not survive. They need oxygen from the surface to develop. They will suffocate when not in a bubble nest.

They won't survive. Females drop eggs all the time but they must be fertiliized by the male in order t hatch

[Oldfishlady]

If the eggs got fertilized or if she died during the spawning act-IME the eggs can be artificially hatched. Since she died alone due to being in QT-the eggs are not fertile and can not hatch.

Sorry for your loss...

wat an aggressive guy

[Myates]

Not necessarily.. bites and missing fins are quite normal, and expected, even in "gentle" spawns.

I'm sorry for your loss.. sometimes the stress is just too much for some :( Just make sure they are very well conditioned prior to help give them the extra strength.

I dunno, my DT male is oddly very aggressive. I may have to approach breeding him as I would with a fighter o_O a lot more time for it.
