    Too bad...but exciting, nonetheless! I agree, though, next time I would pull the eggs out.

    What were they on? Is that some sort of construction that could be moved out of the tank easily?

    It's a bare bottom tank with bits of slate lying everywhere so that they can pick whichever one they want. Also makes for easy removal and cleaning.
