more cory eggs

Lydia · 06-28-2005, 01:19 PM

as some of you might remember, i posted a few weeks ago about how to breed albino cories, and then i got eggs which all got eaten....well, when i started to do a normal maintenance water change today there were more....i lifted them off the glass very carefully with a razor knife and put them in a bottle with tank water and a little anacharis for lack of anywhere else to put them....i know its risky to try taking them off whatever they are on, but the only other option i can think of is let them be eaten...so now that they are in there, what should i do....do you think i should do a 50% or so waterchange in the container every day or what? any suggestions will be appreciated....what about food? this is just a temporary solution....if they hatch i will put them in a breeder net....tia!!

edit: is there anything i can put in the water to keep them from fungusing?

Methelyne Blue has been the standard fungus preventer for several decades.
