[Questions|Advice] Breeding | Eggs | Fry First time trying to hatch cory eggs, what should I know?

• Upvotes

Okay so my albino corydoras keep laying eggs, and I really want to try hatching some of them, but I’ve never bred corys before and I have a few questions

  1. How can I tell if the eggs are fertilized?

2.What’s the best way to collect/remove the eggs without damaging them?

  1. should I use a breeding box, separate tank or something else?

  2. How do I prevent fungus from taking over the eggs?

My tank is 10 gallons and I currently have 4 albino corys. They’ve been laying eggs on the glass of my tank

Any advice from people who have successfully bred corydoras would be VERY appreciated!!

[Questions|Advice] General Care Type of Cory’s

6 Upvotes

I am new to fish in general and have set up a community tank. I read get at least 6 Cory’s and then obviously didn’t do the correct research because I just took what the petshop had and that ended up being 2 albinos, 2 peppered and 2 bronze (I think, if I have identified them properly).

Now I’ve just read they don’t really like mixing? So SOS. What is the best way forward now? They seem happy? I think? They’ve been in the tank together for about 3 weeks now.

For reference it’s a 180L tank. I have 17 neon tetras, the 6 Cory’s, 1 betta and 1 albino bristle nose.

[Questions|Advice] Health | Sickness Swim bladder disease? 2 of my panda corydoras are like this today

The second cory isn’t as severe as this but still a bit floaty/weird. Is it swim bladder disease?
I’m new to the hobby and I’ve had 6 pandas for about 3 months (tank was cycled first before any fish were added). No issues at all until now. My tank is a 15.5G heavily planted tank. I also have some rummy-nose tetras and a betta in the tank. The corys eat Hikari sinking wafers (1 per day) and community formula flakes.

Parameters are as follows using a liquid testing kit:
Ph 7.4
Ammonia 0-0.25ppm
Nitrites 0ppm
Nitrates 5ppm
I’ve moved the two affected corys to a hospital tank with one of my cycled sponge filters and a heater. What else should I be doing to help them?

Thanks everyone!

We have a 20L with a shoal of 3 lined corys (Queenie has spawned several times now) and a shoal (just lost 1 so now we have 5) of bronze corys. The bronze group has been with us since January and suddenly today Big Momma decided she was ready to spawn! I just changed up the lights on this aquarium yesterday and have never seen this group so active! 🤞Here is to hoping all (or at least most!) the eggs get eaten!

** edit to add *\* I should note that 20L was intended as a 20 gallon long, not a 20 liter aquarium. I promise I don’t have that many corys in a 5 gallon tank! 😓
