This group had a much smaller clutch the first time around, but Jan spotted the latest one this morn'n...so she scrapped em off, and we set up a 2 1/2 gal for them.....might be close to 75-100  huh

I guess we're back in the cory business....LOL  |^|

Can you guess what these have been munching on???



I think it's cute, they don't even have color in their tail section yet, but they have nice big whiskers (barbels).

They're up and all over the place....zip zip zoom zip.... |^| |^| |^| |^| |^|

Might be one of the bigger cory spawns that we've had around here...

I keep telling folks not to remove the fuzzy mulm too soon....the newly hatched eat that junk....I'm sure of it....I left it in there, and when I saw loads of fry this morning...poofed it with the baster...a gazzilion more came out...LOL.....so I carefully removed the mulm junk to a white plastic bucket....then grabbed another 15-20 out of there... |^|...I added a bunch of fresh duckweed to the 2 1/2 and they're merrily running around eating from the microbe debris......bit again added just a hint of banana worms....they're going for that too................so far, so good...

got a couple vids, but it only shows a sampling of the amount of fry in there....a touch blurry in spots..couldn't get the distance right when trying to show them more closely....

When I raised a lot of Cory fry I used the corner filters that were corrugated foam, not flat. They liked to hide under them.
