How To Protect Goldfish Eggs From Developing Fungus and Hatching?

One of the biggest problem with goldfish eggs is the fungus that develops and you will need to prevent this from spreading to other fertile eggs. The goldfish eggs that are white are the ones that will develop fungus and if left in the aquarium it will quickly spread killing other fish eggs before they begin hatching.

What you will need to do to protect the goldfish eggs from fungus is the following:

Kordon Methylene Blue Prevents Fungus On Fish Eggs1. Remove any white goldfish eggs as these are not fertile
2. Add a few drops of Methylene blue ( prevents fungus from occurring on eggs)
3. Make sure you water quality is perfect!

If you have poor water quality in your goldfish tank the chances of an unsuccessful breeding is very high. These baby goldfish will be very small and weak when the fish eggs begin hatching and you need to do everything you can to help protect your baby goldfish. I know many goldfish owners often have this problem with fungus covering all the fish eggs but if you add Methylene blue to your aquarium I guarantee that you will have plenty of baby goldfish fry. Methylene blue is a chemical used that protects fish eggs that have just been layed from being infected by fungus.

Best of luck breeding goldfish and I hope that fungus is not a problem you’ll have with your fish eggs. You’ll have to buy fungus prevention medication to protect your goldfish eggs from being attacked by fungus.
