Sorry to hear that you lost your fry. I could be from water change, and the babies can't adjust in new enviroment [water parameter]that quickly.

Normally when my cory spawn I using same water with the parent and each time water change I using the same water from adult tank. When the babies ready to move to bigger tank and they will get used to with the water condition.

It has happend to me so we learn from mistake. What types of the Cory fry is it?

trillis

I'm sorry.

I think it is part of learning what works for us. We work at finding a system that we and the fish can work together. Probably there are foolproof ways, but I don't have the time and space. So I have to work out a way that me and my pets can work with.

One thing is what you said. When you change them young you want the water conditions to be the same. So probably using water from the spawn tank would be safer. Personally I don't move them until they are eating the black worms, unless I have to. Didn't any survive? I would be surprised if none made it. There is usually a tough little guy/gal that hangs.

But take the lessons and do better next time. It's a numbers game sometimes.

Haha You beat me to it pc!

the way i do it is i remove the eggs from the parent tank into a hatchery. maybe try this next time dude.

just an idea, and i have just had a 100% hatch rate on the latest adolfoi spawning

Hopefully the parent will spwan for you again soon.
