Hello all.
About 7 days ago our Cory Paleatus lays around 70 eggs all over the fish tank. We are experiencing this type of “event” first time
We removed parents 2 male and 1 female out, then I added some additional aeration in the aquarium, and removed corner filter out.
I was doing 20-30% WC every other day, but I could not safe many eggs from fungus.
I end up hand peaking eggs (let me tell you what a pain in the ***!!!), so eventually I was able to save about 20 or less eggs.
Oh, one more thing, when I returned parents to the main fish tank, in 48 hours I found another 20-30 eggs, from that batch I collect about 10, rest was eaten by fish.
From many sources I was able to find out that fungus happened due to lack of water stream … Honestly I don’t even have anything for that purpose. Can you please confirm that …
So now we have about 20 fry and every day more and more … Fist they look like tadpoles, then they shake remains of the egg off, and swim up to the surface (at least trying). When do I start feeding? I have First Bite by Hikari
Thanks!
Aram
