Ended up with 23 eggs. About half of them fungused over last night. I caught one of the males eating the eggs this morning. There were only 5 eggs left and they were fungused.
Better luck next time. Next time I will take half the eggs and put them in a separate tank.

Re: Scleromystax barbatus
Got my first batch of eggs last night. This is surprising to me as my pH is 9.1 (yes 9.1) and the temperture is 75º F. How long before the eggs 'should' hatch?

Re: Scleromystax barbatus
Thanks!
Not a professional, just like to take photos.
I keep them in the mid to low 70's F. Water changes can drop the temp about 6 degrees depending on how large a change I make.

Scleromystax barbatus
Just thought I would share a couple of photos of Scleromystax barbatus. Hopefully I can update with egg/fry photos in the future (fingers crossed).

Corydoras sp. (C131) longfin?
Just got this guy. Has anyone else had one with a longfin? Curious as to how often this happens. It is a wild caught fish.

Re: Misc oddball Corydoras
The color is correct.
It does look like the fish you mention.
Anyone know the distinguishing marks or characteristics to look for in either species?

Thank You!
Was pretty sure about that one. Wanted to make sure there wasn't another similar species that I overlooked. New to catfish, fascinating little guys.

Misc oddball Corydoras
I believe this fish to be C. haroldschultzi Agree? http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g36/maddog10/Fish/Misc/c-misc-2.jpg I do not know what these fish are, they were single/oddball fish that I bought to help the retailer free up tank space. Any ideas to help me narrow my search would be appreciated ...
