So I was looking at the tank the other day and there are at least 2 baby peppered corys. There were eggs a couple weeks ago, but I figured all the babies had been eaten. Anyway, is there anything I should do special food or something to help the baby corys survive? They are fully formed and proabbly about as long as this smiley (bat) but a whole lot skinnier.

EDIT: Just saw four of them this morning when I put the light on so at least 4.

If they have survived so far there must be something they have been eating
They should be able to consume newly hatched brine shrimp at this stage.
Would love to see pics

Congrats on the baby corys! They're obviously eating something now, but some baby brine shrimp might be a good idea.

It's difficult them being this small, but after about 20 pictures I managed one where you can see one of the frys.

Thanks for the advice I couldn't find any baby brine shrimp at the petsmart but was able to come out with some newborn fish food that they seem to dig.
