Paleatus Eggs

After noticing that my C. Paleatus have reached breeding stage, I moved them out of the home tank and into their own private tank. The tank was well planted with generous clumps of moss to hide the eggs. I was hoping to leave the eggs there but after realizing that the parents are able to locate the eggs afterall, I started pulling out the eggs with the help of an internet pre-paid card. I was able to take out about 54 eggs and at least 10 were left in places that I cannot possibly reach. I put the eggs in a small container with a drop of methylene blue and an air stone. Today is day one, since they were laid yesterday afternoon. I hope they make it.
