Do you find the bodies?

 

[§tudz]

Yeah

 

[jollysue]

sorry

Yeah it sounds like they may need more food--maybe more often?

 

[§tudz]

yeah I'll try adding more now than I did before

 

[jollysue]

Babies eat small amounts frequently.

I did aweful when I "tried" to raise the babies. I kept washing them down the drain.

 

[§tudz]

washing down the drain? tank are much better than sinks for keeping fish in

 

[jollysue]

Unorganized during water changes. Half asleep and in the middle of moving after 35 years and downsizing from a 3 bedroom house to a 1 bedroom apt.. The cories didn't ask me if I was ready for them to spawn.

 

[§tudz]

Well unfortunatly my last remaining cory fry has passed on...

Found him dead when I got home form work today....

Maybe next time will be better when I have a microworm culture ready

/me goes to clean out the tank and drown his sorrows....

So sorry to hear §tudz

Unfortunately these things happen and reading your posts you did the best you could. Mine hatched last week, and I thought I had 6, but it turns out 3 of those were pandas. So I have three and they seem to grow very slowly, compared to pandas and bronze cories. I'm not sure if these are harder to raise than the others, but they do seem a lot different.

You at least had the parents spawn, so they WILL spawn again. I'll send your parcel Monday, as promised. I'll email details too on keeping them.

Thanks, I've bought two more Tril's today along with three others, which I cant remember their names lo.

I'm, going to post a thread with pics in a bit.

thanks again, you've been a great help.

I'm sorry Studz. I'm sure these cories will eventually hatch some spawn for you.
