ok well make sure your females are mature enough and that you have a nice amount of them. feed them on live food and generous water changes.keep temp at about 24 degrees.

I just got in from work and discovered that the albino corrie's have laid some egg's on the sides of the tank. All going well, hopefully i will have some fry in a few day's.

is there fungus on all the eggs or some? have you got an air stone close to the eggs and add methylene blue that may help

Dam!! The eggs are a dead loss. I didn't have any methylene blue to hand. I'll try again in a few weeks, but I'll be better prepaired next time.

I'm going to try breeding my corys again, they have been in a breeding tank for about 10 days now. Been feeding them frozen brine shimp and blood worms. females looking very plump. Its supposed to be raining here on tuesday or wednesday so i will do a hefty water change at the same time. hopefully this will set them off. I'm better prepared this time. Wishme luck.
