I found a bunch of eggs on the side of my tank and on one of my crypts. Then I saw my albino cory laying them on the glass. Since she was alone when dropping them I guess their not fertilized. Is this common?
The other cories in the tank are 2 pandas, 1 juli, 1 c. melanistius, and 1 unidetified cory, simular to a bronze.
She has been very active in the tank, I notice her getting plump, but I just thought she was well fed. I've never seen this happen before. Has any one seen this before?

Eggs aren't commonly produced in the absence of a male, but it's nothing to worry about as such incidents occur in many species. If it starts happeneing on a regualr basis, I'd get a bit more concerned.

I used to have a single albino cory cat in a tank with nothing but guppies. This was in my early fishkeeping days. She routinely laid eggs on the back aquarium wall. The guppies quickly made a meal of them.

I checked the tank in the morning and only one egg is left. Someone had midnight snack last night.
