yes! all you have to do is to carry the fish gently to a another tank/pail then clean and transfer it back gently too! If not you can just leave it but i am warning you that it will die! Because the water it lives in is dirty!

It depends on how far along the fish is. If in it's last week of pregnancy changes can result in death of the young and even the mother.

Yes you can but don't expect the eggs to survive if you do.

How do you clean out the tank if there is goldfish eggs in there?

Well, first, your eggs should be in a separate tank from all the other fish, ok? Then, when you clean the tank with the goldfish eggs, I usually never clean out the water completely. I usually just dump out 25% of the water and replace it with clean water. I'm sure no harm to the goldfish eggs will be done if you do partial water changes, and partial water changes are all you ever will need. However, if you REALLY need to clean out the tank completely, usually goldfish lay their eggs on aquatic plants or objects. If you move the plant or the object to another little tank or a safe place while you clean out the tank, I'm sure there will be no problem. When your done, just replace the plant/object into the finished tank.

What doyou do when the tropical fish eggs had hatch and you have to clean the tank?

Most fish ova develop into fry in less than a week or so. If you are sure your fish have spawned and you know how to rear the fry and have sufficient tanks available to do so. I would advise you to wait until you can catch the youngsters and place them into other accomodation before cleaning out the tank. Otherwise just clean the tank out and loose the eggs. Maybe the fish will spawn again for you.

How do you clean your triops tanks if there are eggs in there that the adults have laid?

It all depends on what you want. In other words, if they are fish eggs do you want more of the same fish that are in the tank - and the same for snail eggs. The kinds of fish you have will tell you about the eggs and where they are found. Sclares (angel fish) deposit their eggs on the glass or a leaf. Cichlids usually drop their eggs into the sand. Siamese fish blow elaborate "egg nests" made of bubbles. A small gel-like patch on the side of the tank is usually snail eggs - unless you have a large snail such as a Mystery Snail.
