Who laid these eggs?

[Xclaw]

In my tank i have 2 bronze corys, 1 very young (.5" long) red tailed shark and a flying fox. I never noticed and swelling on them in the last few days but today when i returned home there are eggs on the glass and all over the plants, little white eggs. Anyone help me figure out who they came from? I'd like to possible breed and if i need to find the fox or shark a mate i want to do so .

Thanks for your time

perhaps you have a very sneaky snail hiding in the plants somewhere.

Cories.

Ya the cories. The tightest fish in the sea

if it's the cory's or whoever what do i now do with the eggs? do i leave them or put them in a different tank? i'm not sure never done this before but it's what i want to do

I'd say to let this batch go, and put the Cories in a separate tank for the next spawning...but removing the Cories directly after egg-laying and fertilization, as they are inveterate egg-eaters.

how long should i wait till putting the in their own tank?

A couple of weeks...get that new tank cycled with Bio-Spira first.
