how to breed?

Post by hamsterguy »

Hi
i recently acquired 6 trilineatus corys.
For some reason I want a whole tank full of them but my LFS donâ??t get many corys. so im forced to breed them myself :). Now heres a few questions
How big do they have to be to start breeding?
Whats the BEST water parameter for them to breed?
What plants do they work best with and will help them breed?
What furnitures do they need to in order to breed?
What kind of food do I feed them to make them fat and full of eggs? and healthy. :)
Whats the best method to make them spawn?
And most important how do i tell the sex of these corys?

thanks :)
