breeding cory

[billy61788]

is it possible to breed 2 different types of cory? or do they have to be the same? im planning on getting 1 or 2 new corys for my tank and it would be nice to get ones that will breed.

Hi billy61788

If you plan to breed them, it's best to have the same kind of corys.

Have you ever bred them before? Or bred any egg layers? If not, I suggest you get some bronze C. aeneus. These:

They are not difficult to breed and are a good choice for a first time breeder of egglayers. Plan to get at least 3 or 4 if you are buying young ones to be certain of getting a male and a female since it is impossible to tell the sexes apart when they are young.
