At last! One of my margies laid an egg! ;D It's just one, but I'm so glad! I had almost given up hope that they would ever had eggs...
I hope I didn't disturbed it too much... :oI bathed the snails and almost taken all the substrate out for cleaning before i noticed the egg... I'm not used to look for eggs.
But is there any signs you can look for to see if it's fertilized? Actually I believe it's empty... It's yellow with a bit greenish shimmer.. If the egg were fertilized, maybe there would be more than one egg laid?
I put the egg in a little box and put in with the other tanks, I have a higher temprature there, and I had to finish the cleaning so I thought the egg would be safer in it's own box.
I hope they will lay more eggs! But now, I'm just so happy for my little egg! ;DActually I don't care if it will hatch, I think that if they laid one, they can lay more!
You can see a picture of the egg at my home page.
;DBest regards Lisa ;D
