Thanks for you replies! I transfer with either a little container or with a pipette that has the end cut off. I've added some more java moss and also raised the water levels. Water changes are hard because the main tank is at 80 and the fry tank is at 78... can I ask how you do such large temp...

Hi everyone, I have had a few batches of eggs from my Julii cories. They have only laid a few at a time and the other fish have been getting to them, but I've had about 3 batches hatch 2-5 fry. I cannot get the fry to eat and each time they have died. I have tried fry food from Aquarium Coop...

BABIES!! Two babies! I mean, two fry!! They are teeny tiny itsy bitsy. So exciting! I have some fry power food from Aquiarium Co-op and some bring shrimp eggs ready to start all courtesy of a local fish keeper

Thanks! So far nothing hatched but there are 5 that have eyed up and are moving yay!! The other 6, they remained white and last night I moved them to a separate container floating in the tank which then tipped over :(so I hoping that those ones really were infertile!). The issue is that I'll be...

Thank you! I'd better get ready! I'll see if I can get hold of fry food at my LFS I love how you recommend to separate the sexes before trying to breed. I bet it works like a charm One question: some websites say to separate the fry in a separate tank with a separate filter and heater. Would a...

ERMERGHERD there are little things moving inside!!! I feel unprepared for offspring :(

Thanks Colin. I want to know nowwwwwwwwww!!!! Fingers crossed. They've been moved to a container attached to the inside of the main tank with the air pump inside

Hello, My corys have laid eggs!!!! I would like to know whether they are fertile or not. The eggs were laid on some floating Salvinia Minima/Water Spangles and I noticed them a few hours ago. I removed them and placed in a pyrex container with an air filter. I separated the eggs. You will see...

I really like the idea of a Bolivian Ram. I would prefer a German Blue but have read that they are pretty sensitive. My latest pH test (today) was 6.5. Can Rams and Apostogrammas go together? Say if I were to get a male of each? I highly doubt I will do this but good to know. Many differing...

Byron, I appreciate your thoughts, thank you. I will be adding to the cories - they are good for keeping the tank clean which will only help everyone in there (and me!). I also have found a home for the danios, both the zebras and the CPD. I hope you can see that I am asking all of these...
