Hello all :hi:
Right i have several groups of corys that spawn on quite a regular basis but i have never really tried to keep the eggs and raise any fry, usually just leave them in the tanks for the plecs to eat, ive had some spawns today from my Pandas and sterbai so thought i would collect the eggs and try and raise them. At the moment i have around 60 eggs in a floating container, i have added an airstone and a drop of meth blue, the containder has no circulation from the main tank so i plan on doing small water changes a few times a day.
so i have a few questions please, any help would be apreciated :yes:
1) will the eggs be ok in container as i have them at the moment?
2) what % of water should be changed before & after the eggs hatch and how many times a day?
3) how long do cory eggs usually take to hatch?
4) if they hatch, big if as i never have much luck with corys will they be ok in this container still or will i need to move them into another fry trap?
5) when and how often should they be fed, will powdered food be ok or would liquifry be better?
thanks in advance
