| Sounds like a good sign to me, so long as the eggs seem healthy and he's fanning away (not so hard he's gusting them out of the cave) you should be okay! Disturbing the eggs in the way you described (just moved the log within the water, gently) should not harm the eggs, the main concern would be scaring the male off his duties, but if yours is back to work I would say you'd be okay But then, dont take my word for it, there are loooaads more people on here with much more experience than I do | |

hi their if the male as gone back to the eggs then he will tend to them just leave him to it. the only thing thats the problem is the white spot as you need to get this sorted. i dont know if the eggs or fry will stand the treatment as iv,e never had white spot in my bristlenose tanks. | |
