Bronze cory breeding

Post by Taratron »

How large do bronze cories have to be before they can be set up to breed? :)

The size is relatively unimportant, its if the fish are mature that counts. Obviously the bigger the fish are the larger the spawns tend to be. So I would say if your C. aeneus are over 40 mm sl. (body length) (Females get to around 70 mm sl.) and you can sex them its worth giving them a try.
