Howdy partners, question on fugus in a breeding tank.
I set up a breeding tank for a pair of cacatuoides using a bunch of driftwood and a couple coconut huts. Tank has been set up for a month, no ammonia or nitrites, nitrates kept low with 30% water changes every 3-4 days and some plants. The female laid some eggs under a catappa leaf but they all turned white, they're a young pair so he may still be infertile. She's now holed up under some driftwood in the back of the tank, I assume with some more eggs. The question is, will all that fungus on the driftwood and cocohuts attack the eggs? I assume that our tanks are filled with spores, loose hyphae and what not but will the excessive amount increase the likelihood of attack .Thanks for any input.
