Re: Hatching & Raising fry question...

@JoeO: Thanks once again for the helpful info.

Is their any value in feeding Cory fry infusoria? Have read about it on a lot of forums, but not sure if it is suitable for Cories.

TIA

Re: Hatching & Raising fry question...

Hi Joe thanks for the reply. There must be at least 50 or more that hatched. It is a 30L tank with a sponge filter. With the fry in the tank, what is the best way to vacuum? With a length of airline tubing? Too scared to use anything bigger in case I siphon up the fry. LOL My tank is currently bare ...

Re: Hatching & Raising fry question...

Thanks for the advice. I left the unfertilised eggs with the rest until the batch had hatched, as I saw that I had no problems with fungus. Seemed to have no ill effects.

Re: Cory help needed

Thanks to everybody for the advice. Now I now a bit more about what I can feed them. They are most probably still settling in, I will keep an eye on them over the next few days. I think 100L is about 26 US Gallons. I am in the process of constructing hiding areas for them and adding driftwood and ...

Cory help needed

My wife heard that I wanted to get corys for my tank and surprised me by bringing home 4 Bronze corys on Saturday (apparently the last 4 they had). My problem is that I am not sure what food I should be feeding them. The story so far: I have a recently cycled 100L tank. Currently (until Saturday ...
