Hmmmm...in case they moved them I gave them their nightlight back.  I didn't realize they moved eggs.   :o

Usually just wigglers, but I've had a pair move them early......

Pauline, their behavior should give them away....watch and see if they are occupying a different tank area.....guarding??....if not, then they may have chowed..???.....BN's in there?..cories??

Yep, theres a BN in there.  Not good.  All plecos will be gone soon though......the BN and in another tank two very old clown plecos and a rubberlipped pleco. They will be rehomed.

I've never seen a BN touch an egg.  I had them in my breeding tanks back when I was doing a lot of breeding.  Common plecos will scarf a spawn in one fell swoop.  I don't know about Cory's.
Always move forward. Never look back.

BN and cory's are opportunists....if available they'll chow...young pairs aren't up to the challenge, a seasoned pair can win the battle if tenacious enough....

I've only used BN in Discus breeding tanks.  I guess it's not the same in both species.  I never even noticed a Discus parent having to run a BN off.  I can't 'splain it but that's the way it was.
Always move forward. Never look back.

These two are at it again!
