A big congrats Ethan. What exactly did the eggs look like? If they are small and brown thats not a good sign. Keep us posted, I've got my fingers crossed for you buddy.

Yeah they are white and w/ 1/4-1/2 brown lookish, I'll try to take a pic tonight.Most were around the same size a few really small ones.I guess only time will tell.So is it like that, their first egg laying can be inconsistant on egg size and shape?Seems like everyone else's eggs look pretty darn perfect.

A huge congratulations! I remember you posting pictures when they first locked up and thinking that yours are some of the nicest marbles I've seen. I'm rooting for them to hatch out for you... definitely keep me in mind if when and if they do!

Thanks for the comment, got my fingers crossed.It's going to be a long wait.

I really hope some (most) of them are viable... I can't wait to see what the babies will look like! That is an awesome pairing. Best of luck and keep us posted!

Right on, this was my first time pairing also.It just sucks that my eggs are coming out the way they are.First my red blood and now my borneos.I need to get some pics of them and show you guys what I mean.

Hey Ethan,
The best way to know if you have viable egg's, it so candle them with a small mag light. If you see any veining then you are sure to have some babies provided the incubator and medium are working correctly. Good luck!
