Got a pregnant cory! So, now what do I do? I got the three that were in the 30g in a 10g. The pregnant one is laying eggs. Where do I go from there? I've never bred fish, I'm clueless.

Gemini wrote an article about it a while back you could search out.
They are easy to breed.
Its best to turn the filter off before you attempt to scrape them off the glass with a flat razor, and very gently move them into a breeder net.
place the breeder net over a bubbler to move the eggs around so that fungus didn't grow on them.
You should also stir blow around with a turkey baster.Its also a good tool for cleaning the net after they are born.
It takes about 3 days.

Okay, thanks. I'll go look for that. They're corydoras trilineatus, btw.
