I have two RES, I never determined what the sex of the two are. But recently the larger of the two seems to be laying what I am assuming are eggs. It\'s under side of the tail looks large, maybe even swollen. It is laying black masses that are not perfectly round, there all different shapes. after a couple of days the black wears off leaving it a beigh color. they aren\'t layed in groups just one every couple of days,and they don\'t seem to pay any attention to them. should i be worried or is this normal? and if they are eggs do I have to do anything special with them? PLEASE HELP!!!!

If they are eggs and I\'m not sure if they are, but if they are barrie them in some lose soil about 6 inches down. Try to keep them in something other than your tank. Keep the temp around 85-90F. Your best beat would to be to search this site or others for more opoins. Good luck!

I\'VE BEEN SEARCHING THE SITE ALL DAY AND IF THEY ARE EGGS THEY ARE MOST LIKELY DEAD BY NOW ANYWAY SINCE THEY HAVE BEEN IN THE WATER FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW. NOW IF THERE NOT EGGS I\'M GONNA BE WORRIED SINCE SHE STILL LOOKS LIKE SHE HAS MORE TO LAY. IF I CATCH A FRESHLY LAYED EGG I\'LL DEFENATLY TAKE YOUR ADVICE,THANKS!
