The eggs are hard to see from the video- do they have any distinct shape? Are they very round? I found something in my breeder tank that resembles eggs under the microscope but looks like it’s almost in a little case and trying to figure out if it’s an Oto egg. Thanks for your help!
Honestly the ottos hide eggs now in my tank that they have no problems hatching. You can put the eggs in a breeder box and put methylene blue in with the eggs so they dont develop fungus. I'm my experience the fry crave more meat than veg. So I would do small live foods at first like baby brine shrimp. They will also graze on the algae and any micro crustations in the tank. They usually lay 3-6 eggs in a shot. Mine breed in my 125 pretty regularly to the point I dont know I have baby's and then boom one day I see them half the size of their parents.
