Time scales.

Hello All.

I'm hoping that someone can give me some advice about the time scale involved in breeding.
I found a batch of eggs in my tank last night. I have never see eggs before, just free swimming fry. How long after the eggs are fertilized do the fry break out of the eggs and how long do the fry then live off the yolk sacks?
Many thanks,

I assume your talking Zeb eggs :)

If so you'll be looking at eggs for about a week.

We found our first spawn on saturday... so I'm waiting with baited breath!
