I have a pair of Azureus, who just started breeding. I dont know their exact age, but she has now laid 3 clutches of "good" eggs each time. Two from her first clutch survived, and all 6 of the other two cluthes all molded over in a day or two. Normal, from what I understand. But at day 11-12 for the surviving eggs, one of them kinda started turning a light brownish color on part of the outside of the egg. This morning both eggs were very cloudy, and they appear dead. Attempt at pic attatched. They seemed very healthy up until yesterday and were wriggling around a lot. The water level in the lid was usually around halfway up the egg, and temps should have been fairly consistant. Im obviously more concerned about the older eggs, as the moldy eggs seem to be normal so far? Thanks for any help. Shawn

You can try using methyl blue if you think molding is causing the eggs to go bad. but they could be going bad first, and then just molding as a result.

what supplements are you using/how old are they ect. the more info you can give the better
