Thanks for the info! There aren't any sucker-type fish in the tank, though there is a ghost shrimp. It would easy for me to move her to another tank, should I?

The only other fish that might remotely be a problem is a guppy. Is he a problem? He could also be moved, and it wouldn't be too hard.

One of the cories is an albino bronze cory, so who knows what they would come out looking like

Last thing. Are they easy to raise? Or should I cull the eggs? I'm not sure what I would do with baby cories. One of the LFS would probably take them.

How long until the eggs hatch? What size are they when born? What sort of food do baby cories need? Do the parents take care of them? What temp should the water be?

Here's a pic of 'mom' and 'dad' to be! Introducing, Rodney and John! (Now I wish I hadn't given them both boys’ names! 'Rodney' is the girl, and now known as Meredith! [waits for SGA fans to laugh])



That's an older picture (I can take new ones if that would be helpful), the tank now has a sand bottom, and there's a sword-type plant in there as well. Meredith is the albino, she doesn't have pectoral fins (as you can see) will this be a problem? I think it's from a birth defect, would this affect the babies (I know NOTHING about fish genetics!)

Thanks a ton!
