Congrats on finding that many fry! Are you seeing them eat? Hope you can raise many of them as they are super fun when they get 1inch plus and you see them all flying around the tank!
Good luck.

Good stuff, congrats on hatching them. What do you plan on feeding them? Ive found that decap BS and microworms work best, and only in the dark.

BTW, your fry in the tank is like a "where is waldo!!"

Thanks for documenting this in such detail. With the ones that I have hatched, this looks about right to me, they will sit like that for a day or 2 before becoming true free-swimming.

Hi all, Got 7 F1 Tatia Intermedia born and bred in my tanks. About 2-3 inches long, eating everything that hits the water day or night! Would strongly prefer local pickup in Seacoast NH area, but could meet near Boston. Not looking for much money, maybe $10 each, a good home is the most important ...

Sounds like the water is good, just need it to eat! Should you be trying something more meaty in the diet? Maybe some frozen bloodworms, brineshrimp etc?

There are some great videos on automatically collecting Celestial pearl Danio eggs, if you have not seen them they are similar to what you are doing here.
Good luck with this, will be interested to see how it works.

I see hephaestus listed on aquabid at the moment if that helps?

These sure look like my young Tatia intermedia to me. They could certainly be something else, but that’s what my best guess would be.

Great fish, grow them up and they will be very active at feeding time!!

Id suggest that you make a tank that size yourself as you are unlikely to find one that size. Its not terribly difficult and at this size the glass would be easy to obtain and work with. Have a look online as there are couple different ways to put a tank together.
Good luck, fun project!

Hi,
You may already know, but links in threads to the older Corydoras names are failing with the new names. Here is an example:

What are you feeding them? I sometime struggle to get enough food in my corys in a mixed community tank.

They say there is no stupid question… but what’s a Kinon? Looks like an extra piece of foam in the top of the tank? Is it more that that? Thank you As a college professor, I can confirm that stupid questions exist =)) , but yours isn't one :-BD . The term "kinon" is used by scientists to describe co ...

Thank you for posting, been thinking about doing this with an old 55g for a while but trying to do it all within the tank. This is inspiration to go forward with it. They say there is no stupid question… but what’s a Kinon? Looks like an extra piece of foam in the top of the tank? Is it more that tha ...

You should be able to use them both with no issues at all. Glass is easy, just clean it well and make sure that it does not break in the tank! The ceramic should be fine also. I use flowerpots in my tanks with no issues. I do soak them in water for a couple days before I put them in the tanks and ...

Thats for the replies, agree on the tank space for rearing fry, especially angelfish and many of the cichlids which produce large numbers of fry! The interesting thing about these videos was the jar and sponges that he uses for rearing for the first few days/weeks. I like the simplicity of this and ...

Hi All, I'm always interested in different fry boxes, egg hatching devices etc. There are lots of different methods and its always interesting to me what people have come up with. To that end I was watching this video on raising Angelfish and there are some great ideas that I thought that I would ...

Im really interested in the fact that it was caught on an artificial lure and that it would attack that. Not something that I would ever have imagined they would do.

Hi Eric, Sorry to hear about your fish trying to make a break for it down the back of the table! I've had fish do similar things where they end up on the floor for a minute or 2 covered in dust etc. Ive found that most of them make it, although it does take them a couple days to recover. Good luck.

Hi

I feed my fish nightly also, but have found that they will come out during the day also when food is introduced. Ive not kept Colombian but if they are anything like others, would come out any time when food is around!

Hello
Can I ask what species of wood cat you have?
I keep 3 sp, and they seem very happy with frozen bloodworms, hikari pellets, NLS pellets, and occasional earthworms.
I have found that they will eat almost anything, but the quantity that they eat is what always amazes me!!

Hi,

When I click on the donate button at the bottom of the first/landing page, I am redirected to the below page and get an error:

WOW thats alot of work, thank you for all the hard work to bring this back up. I was checking daily and not getting my daily dose of PC!! Great to see it back.

Hi Eric,

Those look really good and "shaking it"!!! What do you plan to feed them?

I have had no problems betting my intermedia to breed and hatch the eggs, but real issues getting the young to eat and survive the first 10 days recently. Any tips on food/water changes/temp etc etc?

Congratulations, they look like really great fish and obviously very happy. To capture the event on video is also impressive.

Hope that you get eggs (and fry) soon!

Hi, Went to make a donation this evening to hosting cost by clicking on the link at the bottom of the home page and get this error below. Thanks all.

I was hoping that you were going to give tips if spawning them when I read the title initially!! Sounds like you are trying all the usual things. The only thing I might suggest is multiple water changes on consecutive days. For example my T gyrina spawned after I changed 25% water daily for 3 days ...

I just played around with this and went to the neotropical database here: https://freshwaterfishdata-dev.ird.fr/geography

You can search for a sp and get collection data etc.

Interesting stuff.

Hi Eric, I had exactly the same thing with my gyrina and they just "melted" away over the next couple of days. I figured that they were unfertilized eggs. My gyrina spawned again with fertilized eggs about 4 months latter. The eggs were visibly different but they did not hatch sadly. Let me know ...

Thats really interesting Eric, congratulations on another spawn.

Are you doing anything special with the eggs apart from putting them in a breeding ring? Any treatment, leaves etc?

Ive watched a few of these, usually interesting. You might find this one interesting, especially around the 15 min mark.
