Please help?
First try at breeding and the eggs have gotten fungus on them. Do we remove the eggs or will the discuss remove them themselves?

Any advice on how to prevent? Already doing daily water changes- We are going to try Methylene Blue, will this help?

How soon did they fungus over? They may not have been fertilized, is this a young pair? Do you wipe down the tank and rinse out the filter often?

What is your TDS? Eggs will fungus like that if the TDS is too high.

The picture is not really clear but not all of the eggs are fungus some of them appears clear color. Keep an eye on these in 2 1/2 days after laying you might
see some black these are the fertile eggs.

Thanks for the advice.
None of them survived. It was the first try so hopefully we will try again.

They definitely had been fertilised.

We will see what time brings :-)
