So how is the new fish room helper working out?
Lasted one day. I set the bar, quite high.
When you dropped down to 50, tnen increased to 100, did you increase the average size of the tanks?
I have 4 - 5 G, 96 - 10 G and 5 - 20 G.
How are the babies? Which babies do you have?
P.S. I have 19 spawns since Saturday. Here is the scorecard:
C. caudimaculatus = 100% infertile. Third time in a row. I don't think I have any males.
C. sterbai = 100% infertile. Haven't spawned in years. It's never warm enough for them.
C. venezuelanus = 100% infertile. Unusual for them. Usually 80% viable.
C. aeneus "Albino" = 50% infertile. Unusual for them. Usually 80% viable.
C. sarareensis = 100% infertile. Third time in a row.
C. adolfoi = 100% infertile. First time this group has spawned. They need to work the kinks out.
C129 = 100% infertile. Second time in a row. Sent a proven group to another breeder and his first spawn was the same.
S. kronei = 95% infertile. Just had two successful spawns.
C. simulatus = 95% infertile. Normal for them. I have some F1, young adults to add to the reverse trio. That should help.
C. duplicareus = 90% infertile. Unusual for them.
C. aeneus "Black" = 80% infertile. Normal for them. I now have Blacks that have made it past 30 days.
C. similis = 80% viable. Normal for them although it's the first spawn in months.
C042 = 80% viable. Same as last time.
S. prionotus = 90% viable. Normal for them.
C118 = 90% viable. Normal for them, so far.
C035 = 100% viable. Unusual for them. Usually 100% infertile.
C. weitzmani = 100% viable. Normal for them.
S. barbatus = 100% viable. Normal for them.
C. nattereri = 100% viable. Normal for them.
If anyone
ever tries to tell you that Cory spawning slows down in the hot weather, ask them to pass the bong - as they be hallucinating. - Frank
