Carey Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 (edited) Hiyas, first post... My son and I have saved our second batch of peppered cory eggs (the first lot got eaten pretty rapidly by our neon tetras) and have them in an egg bubbler...we had a few go white and develop fluff (fungus)... I have seen on youtube vids that people sanitise their eggs after gathering in different solutions to reduce the fungus... Do you guys do this? What products do you use (in Aus) if you do? I removed the fluff eggs and dumped them, there are around 20 or so that still seem ok... Thx in advance Carey ps. apologies if posted in wrong thread Edited July 31, 2020 by Carey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carey Posted August 2, 2020 Author Share Posted August 2, 2020 had about 10/15 hatch.. waited a few days and placed them into a breeding net and they all escaped through the mesh into the tank ....lessons 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Link2Hell Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 @Carey It's all a learning curve that never ends but you learn as you go amazing the size of the hole they can get through also be careful using breeder nets as larger fish will suck the fry through the net cory fry tend to stay on the bottom so maybe look to make a simple old ice cream container fry container and try to fine a fine net to use for the flow ports that usually have fly mesh over them or some medium density sponge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carey Posted August 5, 2020 Author Share Posted August 5, 2020 Thx for the encouraging words... My son and I have sorta bonded a little while doing these projects with the fish I was thinkin of using the same fry net cage and stretch a fine stocking over it next time they lay... PS... we made a couple of little coconut hides for our bristlenose cats...any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Link2Hell Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Coconut shells make excellent breeding caves this might hep with a frysaver build Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
