Thanks for the tips. I will have to try the infusoria thing. I was thinking that the Cories might be a threat but hopefully it will help a little that I always feed right before the lights go off. I was not trying to breed when they spawned if I was I would have set up a tank for the pair. Also would catappa leaves be better for infusoria or would it not really matter?
All leaves decomposing produce infusoria. I do not know if catappa (Indian Almond) leaves would be faster. The main thing is the safety of the leaf species; some are deadly poisonous. Oak, beech, maple, catappa are all safe (depending where they were collected obviously, but safe as leaves). And this does make a difference in fry growth. I use oak leaves with my Farlowella vitatta and pygmy cory fry, and in tanks with other fry I may have rescued from canister filters, etc.
