Omg They Are At It Again! Lol

After my peppered cory's spawned yesterday I decided to do a quick water change & replant this morning as it was a bit of a mess from me getting all the eggs out.

Walked into the lounge 5 mins ago & there were eggs on the glass, took those 4 off, went back & there were three more, its definately a different female to yesterday, but the same male (he must be exhausted lol)

So far, just the 7, wonder what I will end up with today? Better get off to the LFS for more gang valves for the airpump I think!

LOL how many did you get in the end?

 

[karigupi]

Thanks guys, just the 10 eggs saved, managed to drop about 5 in the tank though

I have to try to buy another male I think, three females were chasing him yesterday & bless him, he just didnt have the energy to carry on. I think he is the only male out of the group of 7 I have.

 

[Harlequins]

Aww poor thing i bet he's shattered

 

[lilacamy931]

LOL lucky man!

 

[karigupi]

lol bless him, he has slept all day today my little fella, think I might have to name him Cassanova

Well, lots of my little wrigglers hatched on Sunday/Monday, I only ended up with about 12 from both lots of eggs, which was totally my fault as I didnt realise my airline was not working & one of the pots I lost to fungus.

Was feeling a bit blue about it last night as I sat watching the tank, but I noticed my little cassanova was romancing all of the ladies, he is such a tart, he goes from one to another & just sits on their heads lol,so went to bed hopeful of a few eggs today.

I woke up this morning to lots more eggs, probably about 30-40 but by the time I had changed the babies nappy & got him a bottle, I was down to just 10 the blooming guppies had woken with the mega munchies & decided cory eggs were just the thing for breakfast, grrrrr!

I got the remaining 10 out quickly & have those over an airstone, fingers crossed most hatch this time.

I have also now moved the naughty guppies out into my large tank, I tend to grow out the fry with the cory's but from now on I will have to remember to remove the larger ones when they are big enough to much the eggs.

I've also noticed some spawning behavoir from my Sodalis Corydora, I would love it if these would spawn as well.

 

[mattlee]

oooh congratulations, good luck with them

 

[Harlequins]

congrats

Good luck with your fry and fingers crossed for your sodalis cories will spawn soon

I hoping my skunks might start something,but i think they prefer temp of 22 degrees to trigger them into spawning.

 

[karigupi]

thank you. I got another 6 yesterday & about 20 more today. My little male is feeling a bit romantic & is flitting around the tank sitting on the heads of every female lol.

Hope to have more success with hatching these this time.

Bless him,he's definately got the mood for it now
