I need help or direction I seperated my male and female Pearl gourami turned the water temp up tp 80F and turned off my filter the layed eggs all across the top of the tank (crap) I even left a lid upside down on top of the water for them.I hope that the egg's will still hatch like this?
I have not removed the female because she is still very full of eggs,the male is not bothering her and she is not touching the eggs.
I hope someone has a suggestion as to what I should do about all the eggs sitting ontop of the water? And what to do with the female if anything yet?
 
Leave them and let nature take it's course. Start getting baby food ready.
 
Is there a bubble nest? If not, then the eggs were probably just passed by the female without being fertilized by the male.
