[mad mac]

hi everone, i was given my fish and tanks and stuff about 14 months ago. dont know a great deal about raising fish but i`m loving everyminute of it!!
This is what i have
6 x harlequin rasbora
5 x neon tetra
6 x red eye tetra
2 x albino coryoras
3 x dwarf gourami
2 x silver shark
2 x honey gourami
these are all kept in a 149 litre tank
the 2 albino coryoras regularly mate, i have 1 baby that is 6 weeks old and lives in a 16 litre tank which also contains 50/60 eggs from the same parents( have already started hatching)
if there is any other important info i have left out let me know
Thanks mad mac

sorry to hear about your baby fish
this is the first time i have been able to seperate them from their parents, i`ve leant to notice how they act before they are reay to lay, luckly for me the female cleans the glass then picks them up when he`s done his part!! and sticks them to the glass ( usually the front as it is the easiest to clean ). as soon as she has i swoop it with a razor scraper and my net collect them all and put them in the small tank. so far so good... i`ve just put the second batch of eggs in the small tank ( only 8 weeks since the first batch, ony one of these survived and still lives in the small tank) i hope he is not to big that he will start eating the new fry!

Hi mad mac

Welcome to the forum

I'm happy to greet a new member who is breeding albino corys. I have 2 batches that I am presently raising and will be happy to help you.

Please ask this question in the "Catfish Cradle" section so that other members who might like to raise them too might learn from reading your thread.
