Mark I have more eggs laid this afternoon, I have taken them out and put them in another container floating on the top of the tank, is this right or should I have put them in the with already hatched fry (who by the way are now eating the shrimp brine as their bellys are pink), the new eggs are in their own container where I have added methylane blue & oxygen tablets like I did with the others.
Should I set up a small breeding tank just for the eggs as now I have hatched one lot I am really keen to hatch lots more. This maybe getting ahead of myself here and knock me down if you want no hard feelings, how or what do I need to do to become a breeder of the bronze corys, maybe its just the excitement of hatching my first lot that has got me addicted even more now.
Best Wishes
Jo

Jo,
You are doing just fine. Keep the newly laid eggs separate form the fry that have already hatched. Let the eggs hatch out as before and wait for the yolk sacks to dissolve before feeding. If you like you can set up a separate tank to raise the fry. You can combine the fry from the different spawns once the smallest are swimming about.
