Thanks Ian. They have a gentle steady current so I am just going to leave it alone. My panda's bred pretty consistently in their smaller 10gal tank but nothing for since moving into their 30 gal tank. Guess they just arent in the mood yet. We all know that happens when the honeymoon is over, :D ...

Thanks guys.
The goldfish is in there as a temporary measure until I finish my move, then he moves in with my wifes fish into a bigger tank. Then I can adjust my temps for my cory's. I've decided to make a 30 or 55 gal tank with nothing but cories.

And as one of life's odd twist I've had to put the ...

I forgot to add, I know that corys should be bought in groups but the only lfs that I have found that carries pandas hasnt had a very good track record. Only 3 out of 9 pandas Ive bought from them (total count) have made it. Guess I'll have to ask around and find another lfs that will order ...

OK, lets see if I can answer both post. I started off with 6 adult Panda's (bought in groups of 3 a week apart). The last 3 died, then I noticed a small fry that beat the odds and survived all on his own. No problem with him. The remaining 3 laid about 8 eggs, 5 hatched, lost all but two. Im ...

Fry Size for regular tank vs breeding tank

Im sure this has been covered before but I couldnt find anything. Can someone give me any ideas on how big Cory Fry should be before moving them to a regular tank? I have them in a breeding tank now but don't want to move them until they get big enough to keep from becoming sushi :lol:
