Well to my surprise my curilion(sorry spelling) white and my Turk have laid eggs.
Big surprise being that they have only just settled into the tank.
Problem being they have laid on the powerhead down pipe, so I would imagine they will get sucked up once they hatch. :(
So am I able to take that section of the pipe out and then move it without mum and dad abandoning the eggs? how far away from the spot can I safely move it?
If that does not work, if I get a cone for the next spawn and put it at the opposite end of the tank will they move to that or keep trying on the down pipe?

If this was their first time laying they may remove the eggs themselfs! :roll:

The majority if not all first spawns can be unsuccessful. It usually takes multiple spawns for the fish to be successful, but you could try doing it artificially of course...
