A lot of Corys crossbreed indeed depending on the lineage they are (were) in. Pandas are the most notorious ones.

I'd wait with Corys (def pygmies) till it is established.

I'd give it to someone else having Peppered. The tempneeds of Sterbai and Paleatus are quite different.

I've kept them and to be honest one of the nicest rasboras in a decent shoal. " Brilliant " definitely jumps in mind when well kept. Friendly beautiful fish. If cheap simply get enough of them.

Hahaha that was what I wanted to post. Stuff called Luck. There isn't such a chemical. Chemicals like those are only for the benefit / profit of the aquariumbrand selling them

RIP Byron. You will be missed !

It's not quite logical the female chases a male or other fish. Could you place a pic of both?

Catching my swarming honeybees. But after catching them they left of again (or moved back into their hive for another day)

Thanks for sharing your wishdom and knowledge Byron. You will be missed but always remembered.

Sometimes there are fish which want to make little baby fish.

Brussels sprouts, brocolli, cauliflower, bell peppers, etc...

Any signs of Hole in the headdisease ?

To me the worms look like detritus worms which points to uneaten food in the substrate as AB suggested. IMO most of the issues are caused by waterquality-issues caused by this and meds won't solve this on the longterm.

These interesting fish breed quite easy. Only think they'll eat their own eggs. The show off of males looks a bit different

Personally I think it could be it is stress related. Give it some wood or a cave to hide in (and some fresh vegs to eat at night)

Isn't the first one a gibbiceps? (patternwise)

Mating

Maybe missed it byt what are they fed ? Sorry to say but the substrate is unsuitable for Corys.

Hoping for an Green Cory price then.

Sorry to say but these are not Emerald Green Corys (C.splendens). These are C.aeneus.

Think we definitely need some pics

Over the years I have read tens / hundreds of topics alike. Strangely mainly and C.aeneus show these spots on the base of the dorsal. Recently a C.paleatus. Don't know the cause but could be diet related somehow. There is no reason to worry though.

Infectious spleen and kidney necrosis caused by an Iridovirus (Dwarf Gourami Disease)

It is a secretion from a gland behind the dorsal fin. Nothing to worry about and no treatment needed. Quite common in C.aeneus.

Sorry to hear AB.

Sounds like they are hungry. Leave cumcumber, sweet pepper, brussels sprouts or something. Also remember they are omnivores that's why they gi for the pellets.

In a lot of local stores overhere employees don't know anything.

Think you starved it.

This tetra has gone over the edge. Remove and humanely euthanise is the only thing to do and might save the other ones.

It is not a hybrid. It is a common colormorph of T.labiosa

Only these thoughts proof you are allready infected.

2 Bristlenoses and bristlenose babies

Agree 100% Thicklipped

As a lab owner myself : 1 get a decent vacuumcleaner. Hairs everywhere will be your future. 2 take it everywhere, let it meet people, dogs, other animals, cars, trains, planes etc etc. 3 Don't overfeed (labs will eat anything) and get it a decent brand of food. Overweight is a concern in this...
