Hi Fish Friends,
I bought some beautiful adult Sterbai about a year ago. I could not catch them spawning or find any eggs. I finally put them into a long tank and only gave them 6" of water in it. They stayed there for around 5 months.
I went to a Tropical Fish auction on Saturday and bought a bunch of angelfish, so I took the corys out and put them into another large tank with several feet of water. They spawned today! Apparently moving them from low water to high water is the trigger.
Now I was forced to catch all the fish in that tank and move them into another tank. The babies will be very tiny and almost invisible for awhile. Now to wait and see if the cory remembered to fertilize the eggs and if they left any intact eggs on the walls.
