Oh, they're so cute!! I'm so happy for you that they've grown. =)
I got 5 more pandas today for a total of 9 - I'll make them rape eachother if I have to >
Keep us updated! Also, it's cool that your otos are spawning, is that common?
I've actually seen them eating the microworms, they go ballistic, it's really cute. 
My Birthday is in a couple of days, although I'm nearly twice your age, 29 this year 
He is so gorgeous, same size as the other 3 in the baby tank, so he's now in the net with his siblings, swimming around looking cute So, that's a total of 4 and my other eggs should be hatching in the next few days.
Yesterday, the eggs we saved Friday the 12th started hatching, so I have new panda fry in the breeding net. And to make things more complicated, they spawned again last night, so more eggs in another breeding trap!! I've released the panda fry into the fry tank. Although small, they are big enough for the bigger bronze cory's to ignore. They haven't even paid attention to their new tank mates. 
I sucked them up into a cup before releasing them into the tank. First pic is of all 4 in cup and second is of one fry this morning. Of course, he is sitting right where there is a bit of algae on the glass. The whole tank is clean, but that spot I missed 
They swim around like they are the big boys now with the bronze fry!!! Our net is in the flow of the filter, so that seems to keep them healthy. We've had to check our phosphates in the water, because ours are high here and the cory fry don't do well with high phosphates. 
So we've got a phosphate remover in at the moment. Our otos spawned as well when the phosphates were lowered!! We have the net in as soon as the eggs have been laid, so it grows a good algae on it. The fry seem to eat the algae as well as microworms. Keep well and speak again soon, Carmen Awww they are too cute, well done Carmen!! How exciting that all must be...We have bronze cory fry at the moment, almost 4 months and 3 months old respectively. Very very cute!
They have such attitudes for such tiny things and absolutely love their microworms. Everytime you find one, they have this huge white belly. Can't belive how quick they are growing too. Not even a month old yet. We had more eggs hatch last night, and if their parents are to stray true to form, they'll be spawning again tonight!! A bit manic at the moment, but we are only getting about 4 fry each spawn, due to the fact that the one female thinks they are tasty and our male ram is a cheeky bugger. Will definitely keep everyone updated. I'll post some more pics in a few weeks, when they get their other black bands .
and how cute are they ? you clearly have something in the water with all your fishies breeding like mad !
I have 4 month old fry in our fry tank, and 3 about a week or so younger. There is a huge difference in size, but they do grow fast. In our breeding net we have about 12 or so, all ranging in age from 10 days to 2 days old. Our pandas started spawning every week, then every 2 days and now every night. It's still a chore to collect eggs, because some get squashed while she tries to lay them, by the males chasing after her, some get eaten by them and others eaten by the ram or bronze corys!!! Both females insist on laying eggs in the java moss on our log, and no where else. 
!!!bet your sooo pleased that they keep laying eggs after waiting so long for them to start.good luck with them & let us know how it all goes! shaz
ohhh my hearts melting: sooooo cute. Wish i could find panda's in australia *sighs* ohh well, my bronze s are still pretty cool. Congratulations
