Cory Catfish eggs

Is there a way to safely remove them from glass? I've had them many times, but something eats them all the time leaving only the sticky stuff. Came home today to find actual eggs!

Maybe with a razor?

I have a mating pair of Corys, the easiest way I have found to remove them is with a credit card or thin piece of plastic (so yes the razor will work as well). I hold a small container in the water and let them fall into it. The first time I found the eggs I successfully removed about 50 of them however because it was my first time and wasn't really sure of what to do I only had 3 survive. I have mom and pop and three offspring now. I love these little guys. My Angel's have learned when its time for them to lay eggs and will follow behind Momma Cory when she deposit the eggs they will gobble them up. And if the Angel's dont get them all my peacock eel is all over them.

Decided not to take this on at this time. Within 2 days someone ate all the eggs as usual.

Well,

A few weeks ago we found a new albino catfish...About 1" long. give or take 8 weeks old at that point. Absolutely no help from us .

Wow, pretty amazing. Lucky little one!
I wish my sterbai cories would have babies! I love those fish. So cute. Eight of them patrol the bottom of my 55 gallon discus tank.

Yea I'm finding the catfish to be my favorite in the tank.
