i have 5 batchs of eggs all over my glass... Witch i assume are cory eggs little whitish coloured eggs on my glass.

Any ideas what to do with them... I would like to try and get them to hatch ??

Kinda excited because i never though about breeding. Time to do some research.

first batch of eggs died... but now i have more eggs, Gona try it again

Good luck!

I took the 3 out and put them in a 5 gallon with a sponge filter. Two big females and one male. So if they lay more eggs i can have the eggs and not worry about them being ate.

Void if i have any luck your welcome to some of them fry for your own tanks if you want.

Good luck with your eggs.I have 7 babies right now , 2 albinos and 5 peppers, they are so cute, they hatched jan. 1st. I have 1 albino about 2 months old. Love them babies.//

when mine spawn in a community tank I give them a few hours to toughen up and gently scrape from the glass with a razor blade, siphon them out and place in a hatching jar

I put them in a net type breader about about 4-5 hours after i noticed. They went all fungy though so i threw them out. The next batch i left on the glass and not one is missing. Its about half inch from the water line and the sprayer bar is pointed at it.

I will leave those eggs on the glass to see what happens. But the next batch i will try to put in the breader again.

You could try running an air stone gently under the breeder net. Some people put them in another container with a little bit of meth blue instead.


Congrats and good luckthumbs2:

So how did they turn out? Did they get left alone and hatch?

Im so jealous! my corys have never bred for me. I think cory fry would be the cutest thing ever!

When I want mine to hatch I remove them gently from the glass and put them in a bare bottom 2.5 gallon tank with Methylene Blue and a DIY sponge filter. Let them grow out a bit then move them to a 10 gallon with the same setup. Ultimately introduce them into the destination tank.
