What should you do if your goldfish lays eggs? For 99% of people, its honestly best to allow the fish to have a nice breakfast and go on with your day. If you’re that 1% up for the challenge, you need to either remove the parents and put them in a separate tank, or remove any plants or decor with eggs on them and put those into a separate tank. If the parents miss any eggs they will indeed eat the babies. #fish #goldfish #aquarium #eggs #goldfishbreeding | Luke’s Goldies
