Trojan_man Enthusiast Posts: 204 Kudos: 191 Votes: 0 Registered: 10-Aug-2004	My oscars recently lay a batch of eggs on a piece of slate. They have fertilize it and everything (The eggs are Hazel, they are fertilize), I took the slate and put it in a ten gallon alone. It been 4 days now and it have a thick layer of fungus, are they gonna hatch any time soon? So far the eggs are half hazel and divided by a black line. Any advice?
