So i lifted up two of my filter pads to see how well they were collecting, and took a picture of what seems to maybe be eggs?

Well depends on how committed you are to saving them. I let eggs survive if they can make it on their own they live ow, nope

Same approach as addy in our pond - it's a fish-eat-fish world out there! I figure that way only the strongest, smartest, and perhaps luckiest, will survive.

They will likely be just fine in your 10g, but with eggs you never know. Sometimes they're just a bad batch.

So you're moving in a week... does that mean you'll be doing a new pond?

Thanks yall, will let them be.

Yes JB, Building a Patio Pond first since I have all the materials when we move in this weekend. Larger Pond (3,500 Gallons) is put on hold for a month. Will post Patio pond idea later today.
