I Think My Aeneus Are Cheating

I wish I had another one already cycled and ready.
All mine are being used for sick.
I have the sick cory in the community tank, and the mollies getting treated in the hospital tank. If they were on the same meds I could move them all in the big tank, and I could use the litte one for the new fish. The problem is one tank has clout going and the other has pimafix and melafix going. I even have quick cure going in the 1g. betta tank for him. That covers all three of my tanks. I have 4 fish that aren't sick anymore, but nowhere for them to go. I am going to have to figure out a better way to do this.

Now I really wish I had another tank ready to go! I was doing my water change in the hospital tank getting ready to put in the meds and found something.
I GOT FRY!!!!
I get my new fish without going any where. 3 live ones so far.(all white) Now I have to figure out which one is having them.

Should I still put in the pima/melafix with the fry in there, and her in labour?

I don't have anywhere to move them to. I put in a net to put the fry in as I see them.

You have entered an unknown for me. I have never had to treat fish with fry.

But congrats!

I have been in terrible straits with sick fish. The most important thing in fish keeping is the water: clean oxygenated water. Part of keeping that right is keeping the substrate clean. A good easy to clean substrate is the key to that. If the tank is planted, that helps keep waste from becoming ammonia. If there aren't live plants, I like to keep the substrate at a minimum--usually sandy. So far I have not had any fish that prefer gravel.

ok... lets talk cheating. I finally got to get some fish today. I got corys. I had only 1. I thought I had figured out what it was, but I was looking at a post where someone asked what they were, and they didn't agree. Now I am waiting to see what they tell her.
Back to the subject. I got 2 more like that one, 3 peppered, and 2 albino. They have chosen to hang out with different kinds instead of their own. The one I had is staying alone. Has he been alone too long?
I think they are bronze, but I am not sure. Will these 3 kinds interbreed? Also how do you tell male from female if you don't know if they are the same age? I can't exactly go by one being bigger than the other.

My peppered seem to like the bronze, and my albino like the peppered. The bronze like both, just not eachother. I think they are confused.

Your's aren't confused. At least they're hanging with other cories. My albino totally ignores the cories unless she has the urge to merge. Otherwise she and the ADF are inseperable. Talk about confused; the little tramp.

Cool
When they breed, if I have the right sexes , will they go back to their own kind?
