How Can U Tell If A Albino Cory Is Preganant ?

they dont actually get pregnant just eggy. the female will lay the eggs then the male will fertalise them.the female will just get alot wider than the male when shes eggy :D
 
a cory will become a bit larger when carrying eggs then you should find eggs scattered all over the tank. mine leave them on the glass :good:
 
Well firstly the don't get pregnant.
Mature females swell up with eggs and if you have a swollen cory then it's odds on it's carrying eggs.
If you have a couple of males then breeding is quite possible, when ready the male nudge at the females and if the become very active 2 fish positioning to form a "T" shape this is typical breeding behaviour.
A simple trigger to trigger them to spawn is a large cool water change, change 40-50 of the water and aim for the resualting mix to be 4-5oC cooler and dont allow it to warm to quickly can help make them spawn with in 2-3 days if all is well.
 
The T formation with the cories is a female nudging at the middle of the male. I have seen various explanations of it but I don't think anyone actually knows why. The fertile eggs are not scattered randomly in the tank. They are usually stuck in place in groups in places like plant leaves or even the tank's glass.
