There are small white dots in my female's tank. she is kept with a crowntail in a one gal(seperated). are they eggs?

BTW, they are on the gravel, not her body.

It is possible, but highly unlikely. If they look like tiny white beads and are on the bottom of the tank they could be eggs, otherwise it's something else.

Well, they could possibly be eggs. The bad thing about it is that usually when the eggs are white, they might not be fertilized and already showing growth of fungus on it. If my assumptions are correct, It will further show white cottony stuff growing on it after a day or so. At this point, it is highly recommended to just take it out of the tank.

they are eggs but they are not fertile. sometimes a female better will be ready to breed and eggs starts to develop. sooner or later if there is no male to boogie with her, she will eventually release some of the eggs cause it gets to big for her to hold them all.

very unlikely. its probably a fungal infection - treat your tank with fungal medication available from your local petshop.
