Well how many cory's do you have? What kind are they? Do you know if you have male and female? Females are bigger than males?

My cory's spawn all the time, they say doing a water change and slightly lowering the temperature of the water...helps....everytime I do a water change, over the next couple of days...I have eggs.

They lay eggs on the glass..well mine do....I gently remove them and put them in a breeder net...if they go beige in colour means they are fertile, I also make sure there is an airstone in the net, as they helps prevent fungus on the eggs, I also add a tiny amount of meths blue to help with fungus any that have fungus on, remove, and also any that stay white after say 4 days...remove also...they usually hatch after 3 days, but I did read somewhere that someone had some hatch after 7 days.

I am by no means an expert...but always happy to try and help

mine hatch in about 3-4 days. then wait about 3 days before feeding, until their yolk is gone. (orange bit goes). mine only layed eggs after about a mouth after they were introduced to ther tank.

good luck
