Default Spawn-Aid

Does anyone know if "SPAWN-AID" works for breeding corys? Thanks!

I don't see why it wouldn't. All the aid does is simulate natural conditions of soft water fish. Cories are S.A. fish who come from soft water so it might work.

Condition with live worms.
Skip a water change.
Wait for a storm and then do big water change (cooler water can help here but may not be needed as much as the conditioning, storm and clean water).

Well put Doyle!
I'm not familiar with the product called Spawn-Aid...but it definetely isn't needed to breed most cories. In an earlier post...I read that you were trying to breed green (or bronze) aeneus. Using Spawn-Aid on them, would be a total waste of hard earned money. Stick to what Doyle said...and you'll have more eggs, then you can handle! Best of luck!

I would just note that a lot of my corys, esp the few breeders I have, I bought from Fishnut2. I do not personally know of a more dedicated and successful cory breeder than him and most of what I know re breeding corys I learned from him.
