Pepper cories have been spawning all night and its been really difficult to get decent pics. Here you can see the female with her "hands" full (off eggs!)

Hard to make it out, but is it the cory on the left with the eggs? Amazing!

 

[Lynz781]

Yeah thats her. You can see her ventral fins are clamped shut. Quite concerned about the pair of them. She is tired and he looks like he's gonna pass out or worse

 

[Bloo]

how do fish "look tired" ?

Great piccie btw

 

[Lynz781]

SHes breathing quickly and he keeps vibrating all over her he also looks pale. First time I've seen cories do that though. I've always missed it

 

[Dave781]

No wonder he's going to pass out, birth is such hard work for men!

Great photo with them both together, parents hehe

Very cool picture. Peppered cories are on my list to have in one of my tanks. I got one right now, it was the only one they had. I need to get it some friends. Right now its hanging out with the other cories in the tank

Good luck with the peppered corys and also good to hear about the albinos You aint gonna have any room soon

 

[Lynz781]

I'm not raising any more fry. As soon as she laid them she ate them or someone else did. She scattered them about the tank too. None left though.

 

[Lynz781]

Albino this time. She's carrying quite a few eggs there.

Snapped some more pics and got one of her filling her fins up. She was just on the spot squeezing them out:

Cool pics! Your Corys must be very happy. Well done.

What temp do you keep your tank?

 

[Lynz781]

Thanks. All I needed to do was add sand and they have been spawning ever since.
It's really cold in my room but tank stays at a minimum of 23 degrees celsius. Gets alot warmer than that in summer.
