Iv Got Fry

[drewry]

iv just had a look at my bronze cory eggs i was looking in my tank and out the corner of my eye i saw some thing move after closer inspection its an egg with a tail
then 2mins later i saw another egg fall of the tank wall and swim round in circals and drop to the bottom
im well chuffed

to tell you the truth i actualy thought i was going to loose them all to fungus and started panicing abit
well i actualy bought 6 bronze and 6 albinos hopeing to breed the albinos first but it didnt work out that way
keep at it bubble cos its a absolute buzz when u get fry ,i mean iv been luckly really cos i only decided to breed corys a week ago and everythings turned out really well for me up 2 now ,but i think thats down to i set up a tank just for them i mean im a novis at egg layes im used to live beares

how long was it after the first time did ures spawn again

If your albinos are C. aeneus (they can be one of several species--albino is not a species), then if they are together in the same tank, you will likely get both regular bronze and albino fry. I keep my regular and albino LF peppers together.

My corys just get on with it by themselves without my assistance. I had no plans to breed them at all and it was a complete surprise when the eggs appeared first time round
They're in the community tank and it happens mostly not long after a water change. I have 3 pairs in the tank and I'm not even sure if they're all male and female pairs at that. 1 bronze pair, 1 albino bronze pair and 1 pair of schultz corys.

I've found the growing on of the fry the hardest bit of it all tbh

 

[drewry]

well they must be happy in ure tank to spawn jennybugs

well if you look from a top veiw the females are allot wider than the males and rounder
i dont know if you know that you probly do

yeah raiseing the fry is going to be a chalange its all tryle and error really but fingers crossed
hopefully my mate will bring his cam tonight so i can put pics on

If you have a male bronze in the tank with female albino bronze who are laying eggs, the male will fertilize the eggs, and you will get some albinos from the spawn.

And visa versa obviously: a male albino bronze will fertilize a female bronze's eggs.
