I have cory fry for the first time!!!

[brennae]

I'm so excited! I didn't think the eggs would even hatch but this morning the fry are darting around the dip and poor. Whoopi!!!

That's great! Do you have a setup to care for them?

 

[brennae]

Right now they are in a small dip and poor in the tank with tank water and some plants. I just fed them microworms. In a little while I will transfer them to a large dip and pour and read about what to do with them. I do have an extra 10g I am not using but I need a heater. I had to lend mine to my mother.

 

[Eggheadfish]

Yay! So happy for you

 

[brennae]

So I am on my second batch of fry. The first batch is doing very well and I have put them in their own 10g tank that is only partially full. I still have batch number two in a dip and pour. Looks like their egg sacks are gone today so I will begin feeding the micro worms.

 

[Eggheadfish]

Lucky! I have an empty tank but no completely seeded filter so I'm not sure what to do yet. Today was WC day but no more eggs yet

 

[brennae]

My filter isn't seeded yet either but as long as I do lots and lots of water changes it has to be better than keeping them in a dip and pour container.

First batch of fry is growing fast! Here they are in their own 10g. I counted 11 when I moved them.

Yeah I figured I could try to use the tank anyway since I was doing tons I water changes but I get nervous haha
They look great!

 

[brennae]

Thanks!!

 

[brennae]

Just an update. I think I may switch from micro worms to baby brine shrimp. I also put the two batches together in this 10g.

Here's an update. I just made a batch of Repashy Grow and Spawn. I put a very small amount of garlic juice in it and put a very small amount in this pot coaster. They're still figuring it out as are the adult corys in the big tank. I was feeding daphnia for the last 2 days *frozen, along with baby brine shrimp also frozen.
