Trilineatus Cories Just Keep Spawning...

[Harlequins]

well the little flirts are at it again ,they're so amusing to watch the way they dance around,nudging,scooting all over the tank,i have spotted 3 eggs so far,managed to save them has the platys were taking great interest in them!

Left them to it for now...

Thanks Amy

I will put the tank lights back on later to see what they're up too

 

[Harlequins]

[Harlequins]

Another batch in hand (well in tank) of 12 eggs today...

The others haven't had time to hatch yet

 

[lilacamy931]

Aw bet you are the proud mum Are you going to keep all these babies out of interest? As with my pygmies sure there are a few good homes for them to go to if necessary but not sure what i would do with all those little sproglets!

 

[Harlequins]

Thanks amy
I probably will sell them if they reach adulthood,my 10 eggs finally hatched last night,and i have the 12 eggs due in a few days.unfortunately i've lost a few of the smaller fry but the rest appear ok at the moment

 

[lilacamy931]

Aw sorry to hear about the losses Im sure the others will keep going good and strong (cant wait to see more pics )

 

[Harlequins]

Thanks amy

I suppose you got to expect to lose a few ,but they seem content in supplying more eggs

 

[Harlequins]

Well yet again before the last batch of 14 have even hatched,they have laid more ,i retrieve 12,thinking one appeared dark,within a few minutes it hatched,so i guess its from the last lot

so i think at last count i had 31 fry varying from 1 hour to 3 weeks with 14 eggs due to hatch tonight....and now another 11 saved

Bless them

Congrats on the spawn! I think I am in the similar situation. I just got another 200+ eggs from 2 of the female. One started this morning about 8am and ended about 4pm, and the other one picked up a little before the first one ended and still laying eggs at the moment, 11pm. Definitely not every eggs are saved, but at least I got a good portion of it. Now, I separate all my fry with 1 week apart. I have found that younger ones in the same breeding box will not survive if the older fry are present.

Ps. Still waiting for my trilineatus to spawn.
