Cacatuoides mum with babies!!

[nitram79]

Hi all,

I have got a female cacatuoides with her babies in a 2 foot tank alone. The babies were hatched around the 8th. Everything seems to be going well, but I have just noticed some new eggs on the wall of the tank. There are no males or other fish to fertilise the eggs but is she going to try to protect these new eggs from the babies by eating them?

hey all,

the eggs are disappearing so im guessing the mum is eating them as they are to big for the babies to eat
