Thanks Inchworm, I can always count on you. :D Little bugger scrattered them all over the tank this time.

Anyone?

My Corys laid eggs again today. :D Is it okay for them to be on the heater? Can you tell if these eggs are okay? Right color etc...? :unsure: Thanks

Here is a better picture I hope.

Here's mine...LFS said they were Green Corys also, but everyone else seems to think they are Bronze Corys. They change color with different gravel colors. In the below picture they were on Orange gravel. Here they are with Natural gravel sand, they look more brown/bronze. Bottom right hand...

Hi Inchworm :D I put them in the tank night before last and they are just hiding, they won't come out to eat at all. This afternoon I saw all three swimming around alittle, maybe they are just scared. I'll keep an eye out and make sure that is all that is going on.

How do you get so clear of a up close picture?

Finally got the Cory tank set up....they are not very happy!

She is kept in a locked cage at all times. I make my husband feed her. My daughter just got married, and left her here for now. Her name is Charlotte.

That is just to cute. I love squirrels. :wub: :wub: :wub:

Thanks for the information guys. I have some Corys that need to be moved. They have started laying eggs in my community tank. Can't wait 6 - 8 weeks to move them. So I need this tank to cycle as fast as it can.

Thanks, 1 small sponge from a Aquaclear 30, in a 10 gallon tank.

Many Thanks Inchworm :D I understand about the sponge on the old filter intake, so I will just clean another tank up that I have , and start another tank for the adult Corys. Then they won't be in my community tank. Going shopping tomorrow for sand, air stone and small pump. What size pump...

Welcome to TFF haileysmom :D Welcome Okyrah To answer your question...the fast reply doesn't give you any editing options, like color of font, type of font, and other good things like that. :good:

Thanks again...Inchworm. :D I have a filter on my tank now, that sucks water up into the filter, and then runs it through the sponges, and back into the tank over the top. Question: Can I get a piece of sponge to wrap around the intake, to keep the the fry from being sucked into this filter...

If you have a seeded filter sponge from an established tank, how long does it take to cycle a new tank with it? Thanks for any help. I have some Cory's I need to move.

Thanks Inchworm...that clears it up. The box filter is like the ones I used 20 years ago. :lol: I remember them..... The sponge filter looks funny though. Which one do you think works the best? I remember having alot of trouble with the box filter. The Corys are doing the dance again.... :wub:

Been reading all the post on breeding Corys, because mine laid a few eggs. Keep running across microworms as food. What is it and where can you buy it? Thanks

Hi Bozza, Here is a link someone sent me, it is a very good article on breeding corys. It says the breeding tank should have a large footprint (large substrate area), as opposed to being really tall. http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?showtopic=165155 Hope this helps.

How small a water change? Thanks for the help

Inchworm, I have a small 10 gallon tank, that is almost finished it's cycle, could I move the cory's to that tank, when it's ready? And if I do, when they spawn again, do I need to move the parents back out? I would love to see if I could raise some babies.

Hi Inchworm, I have 3 Bronze Corys. First ever. :wub: Love them dearly, but didn't know they were going to breed so soon. Didn't really know if they were male or female. My Parrots laid eggs 2 days ago, now this. Is it something in the water :lol: Have know idea what to do with them...

Around 3:30am this morning the corys were chasing each other. Didn't think anything of it at the time. Came home from work today, and found these by the heater. Haven't seen any more anywhere else in the tank. WHAT DO I DO? Never had Cory eggs before.

Welcome to TFF :good:

Welcome :good:

Welcome :good:

Saw her moving gravel last night, but didn't know she would lay them so soon. :D

Female has started moving gravel from her hiding spot. Maybe I'll have eggs soon. :good:

Bronze Corys......Okay..... :good: Thanks for the help. I like the clown pleco also, he is so cute.

LFS said they are Green corys, anyone know for sure? They look green iridescent to me.

Welcome!!!

Just found out that I have a Female and Male. Her tube dropped down today. :D :good:

I used Coppersafe from Mardel to treat the tank. The directions call for 1 teaspoon for every 4 gallon of water. I took out the carbon first. Then put in 2-1/2 teaspoons. Treats water for 1 month. So I need to let this medicine stay in the tank for the required time, then do a water change...

I have heard that the dyed Parrots, don't live as long as the ones that are not dyed. I have 2 Parrots in a 29 gallon tank and they seem to be doing fine. I am getting a 75 Gallon for Christmas, so will be moving them soon.

I guess they did have Ich after all. All the fish died, so now I have a empty tank. :( :sick: :sick: :sick: :sick: How do i do a fishless cycle, that is half way through a with fish cycle?

Here is a better picture than the one above, and also a picture of them on Monday. This past Monday

Thanks for the help. I think I will take a picture to the LFS guy, and see what he thinks.

It just started in the last 2 days. My Dad gave me these fish, and they were in a horriably dirty tank. It doesn't look like Ich, it looks more like fine powdered dust. here's another picture. I have some coppersafe and some other kind of ich meds. Would that help, if it's not Ich. Thanks...
