unheated basement

Hi, I´m planning to reinstall my Fish-rack in a basement room. This room is not heated but the house is new. I´m not measured the temp. yet. But I assume that the air-temp. will not be colder than 16-18°C. Hopefully. The plan is to maintain fish from the suptropics so I don´t have to heat the tanks. ...

Re: Which Food do you use?

Hi,


@Mats:

I totally agree with you!

I just want to know which food the users here use. Nothing else. That should not be a discussion about the general things in breeding Corys.

Re: Which Food do you use?

Hi,


I now that is not so simple to reduce it to to food.
It is completely clear that you have to do more than feed the fish. But that is not the stuff that I´m interesting in.

But my basic question is: What food do you use and why.

Hi, I´m looking for new food for my Corys. Some People breed every Cory they get, so what is their secret? One big point is the food I guess.

C.sychri??

Hi, I got some new Cories last weekend. They were defined as C.sychri but I´m not sure if it´s really C.sychri. C97 looks very similar for me. Anyway, they was imported from Peru and both (C.sychri and C97) come from there. And thats the reason why I´m confused. http://siluriphil.de/fotos/C.cf.sy ...

Hi.


I forgot a question to ask.
In which size did your C.venezuelanus start to spawn? My fishes are approx. 3-4cm in the moment. That´s to small, I guess.

Hi Frank.

Thanks a lot for the pic.
There is nearly no different between this Albino and the "normal" C.aeneus. Maybe your C.venezuelanus Albino is more metallic. Could this be?

Under what conditions do you set up your Corys for breeding? I red that they breed all over the year.
Do you have a pic of your albino?

Hi.


That could be a possibility. Breeding Corydoras is the same way. So why should it doesn´t work for Agamyxis?
But I never heard of a successful breed.

skeletal structure

Hi.


Do someone knows where I can find some Infos about the skeletal structure of corys?
I would like to know how the scientists distinguish the different genera. Some of the important things is the cranial bone, I guess.
