Setting up my corydoras weitzmani to breed them, since they are the species I really wanted to breed but all my other fish decided to breed on their own, so I hadn't had the chance to set these guys up yet.
But, now I've got fry raising downpact well, and some fry have moved on to new homes, i am now setting these guys up to breed.
