Hello All,
I have one Peppered cory in my 7Gal tank and she is laying eggs right now.
The problem is that there is no male in the tank to fertilize this eggs, is it going to be too late if I buy for her 2 male tomorrow?
Thanks.
Aram

Yes, the eggs are only able to be fertilized during the first hour.

I would still get some more as they do enjoy company of their own kind. And then you will get some fertilized eggs.

Thanks All!!!
To my luck, 4 LFS had no Corydoras paleatus ...
They had some cory, but I don't want to cross them, although I have heard that they do "cross"
All eggs are gone she had them so much, even snail was caring 3 on her back

Wow! She'll appreciate a couple of buddies even if the eggs couldn't be fertilized this time. Corys generally are happiest in groups of at least 3.

I can't find anywhere a Corydoras paleatus in my neighborhood ... 2 more LFS, nothing...
Does anybody know if this fish can be mailed?

I've heard good things about these guys, and have seen them selling on aquabid.

Sold out!
I will try at aquabid, I know risky, will see!

I have bought several items from aquabid. Never been unhappy with the service I have gotten. Best thing to do is to look at the sellers feedback before bidding, If that person has mostly positive feedback and several of them, you can usually trust them.
