C. Trilineatus fry diet

Greetings! Please help! I have c. trilineatus fry that "hover" in mid to top level of tank. They also float at surface and grow at uneven rates. The water parameters are good. Not all c. trilineatus fry exhibit this behavior. The C. Paletaus fry in the same tank are doing very well. It's a...

Re: Lonely Panda Cory? Mixing cories

Corys love each other, but do way better in groups of the same species.

Re: Corydoras seussi color variation?

Is the color of the substrate the cause?

Re: C. trilineatus

Yes I have. Great information! Both groups of parents reside in a planted 29. I collect the eggs and move them to a 2.5, no substrate, heater and air stone. After hatching, the newborns go to the 5.5 with sand, sponge filter, and a heater. I plan on setting up a 30L soon and moving the fry from the ...

Re: C. Trilineatus midget fry/retarded fry

I know the different species. The two C. trilineatus fry are different ages. The older fry (4.5 months old) is very small for his age. I was told by one of our club members that the fry may not grow and could be culled. If the fry does not grow, I will just keep it in my tank. The older fry had five...

Re: ID corydoras with single stripe

Someone from my club states that this fish is a CW041, because they come from the same area, and my fish could be stressed out a bit changing his appearance.

Re: C. trilineatus

I had one fry live to be just shy of two weeks and the other two lived one day. They all passed at once. I've been advised to feed richer foods to the parents. I am pretty bummed out, still. They passed on Sunday. MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEH I hope mommy and daddy fish want to make more babies....
