How to Raise Corydoras Fry! 

Oh yay! Hopefully they grow big and strong ❤️ I'm happy if this helps you even a little

THIS. THIS is my most favorite comment I've ever gotten. 💙 I always listen to videos when I'm doing chores so I know what you mean and I am honored. 🥺 Thank you for tuning in and I hope you're in love with your corydoras 💙

Thank you so much Andrew!

Wow congrats on getting your pandas to spawn! I've had a few for a year or so and they just wont bother 😅 thank you so much ☺️ and good luck!

I’m fond packing the tank full of plants and feeding lots of live and frozen foods work but Idk I bread my by accidental bred mine

Thank you! ☺️

Yesss! I get so stoked to see other women who upload fish videos 🥰 There needs to be more in the hobby!

@@JillsFishRoom so so true been think of starting a channel for that reason

I wish you the best of luck :) I'm sure you'll have babies in no time! Goodnight 💤

One last question, how long will platties say pregnant without a Male in the tank? Or can they crossbreed with guppies in community tank.

Solving the mystery of your missing shrimp 🕵️‍♂️ lolll Love your comments

Thank you! 😊 Congrats with your new babies 🎉 You can keep them is as big of a tank as you want, really. As long as they can get to food fine and theres no other bigger fish to eat them. I have mine in a 5g right now and do water changes once a week, theres only about 12 fry so it's quite empty though. Also, I always do water changes from my main tank 😁 it's easier on the fry. Let me know how raising them goes pls 😆

Omggg don't get me started. I have 100+ 😂 I want to get a big grow out tank for them but I have no room right this second. I imagine they're super stoked about being in such a big colony. I actually like the gopro as well, thx for the feedback. Always happy to see you pop in 😊

Thank you 😁 and yes! Lil cory babies will eat just about anything they can fit in their mouth. I need to learn how to culture some :)

@@JillsFishRoom thanks! You just put some moss and a cooked veggie in a jar at full sun.

@@JillsFishRoom you can do that easily.

Awee thank you so much! 💙 I'm always glad to help when I can. It depends 😊 If you have common Corydoras (albino, bronze, etc) it is very simple. My albinos just spawn because I have them in ideal water conditions. Other people can get their Corydoras to spawn by feeding them a nice variety of food like bloodworms and high quality sinking pellets. Corydoras tend to spawn early in the morning so another good way to get them in the mood is to do a late night water change a few degrees cooler than usual. This would simulate fresh rainfall which is a queue for breeding in the wild. The more rare the Corydoras are, typically means the harder they are to breed. What kind do you have/are you planning on getting? They can also be kind of testy if they are in an aquarium they feel unsafe in (i.e. aggresive tank mates, high foot traffic area of the house). I want to record a whole vid now because there is so much to explain 😂 I hope this helped a little though! I'm lucky because my tap water has a good PH already so I just fill up a bucket and put water conditioner in. You could also set out water for a couple of days so it would reach room temp and not have to use water conditioner. I'm too lazy for that though 😅 I have a little vid on Corydoras catfish care if you are interested. I appreciate you tuning in!

@@JillsFishRoom thanks for explain! i'm having a 4 bronze corydoras with 1 albino corydoras righ now. i really want to breed them... my 2 bronze corydoras looks like very fat now like their having a egg right now...

Hi Irene! Congrats with your babies :) I loove peppered cories. I've actually heard that as well, but I PERSONALLY have never had a problem with my water level high, I've always just had decent water aeration. If I were you, I would fill my tank 3/4ths of the way up just to be safe. 😄 That's what I'm going to start doing. But I wouldn't be too worried about it. My babies did great though :) They all grew up decently big and I sold them to some nice gentleman. Also, If you fill a 5 gallon to the top and have small babies in it, you call pull off doing water changes once every two days 🤩

@@JillsFishRoom Thank you so much for responding. That’s awesome. I feel a lot better about how I’m doing things. You are awesome. I appreciate your content. It is super helpful.

Thank you so much ☺️ Great! What kind of Corydoras do you have? It can vary greatly. I honestly keep my albinos around 21-23° C (69-73° F) and they happily breed. I honestly think they care more about their water conditions and tank mates 😊 When I had them with loaches, they would absolutely not breed lol

i have alot 😂9-bronze 2-skunk 7-albino1-peppered 1-panda 3-gold lazer 1-sterbei 1-julii 4-emerald 4-venezuelanus orange and still looking for more

​ @Lee and Mandy Battersby Oh my gosh I LOVE THAT! I was looking into getting a few Venezuelanus Orange recently. They are so unique :) I'm jealouss.

Yeaaa brine shrimp are definitely messy. Do you try to avoid adding the brine eggs? I think a few of my fry got ahold of some and couldnt digest them 😢 I also add snails/shrimp to be a cleanup crew. Bladder snails REALLY get the job done but multiply like crazy lolll.

🪱🪱🪱🪱😊

Funny you mention 😉 I forgot to add that in this video but I'm uploading another vid today/tomorrow about how to remove eggs!

Hi! Sorry it took long to respond 😕 I'm on vacation right now with VERY limited internet. Baby brine is the VERY best food to start fry out on. I'll usually feed my babies until a month or a month and a half but a lot of breeders will feed cory babies brine until they're 3+ weeks old ☺️ then you can give them regular old sinking pellets.

Hope this helped!

@@JillsFishRoom Yes it did ! my original Question is, typically when do we start to feed? like how many days after i them burst out of the coat?

Oh great! And oops lol 😅 cories have a yellow yolk sack attached to them, if you look really close you can see it. It'll deplete after 2-3 days but you can literally see when it's gone. After that then they're hungry little wriggly things 🙂

@@JillsFishRoom Its typically 2 to 3 days then , Great. i ll look for it , thank you for your response

Hi Steven :) Cory babies look fairly different to guppy babies. Cories will sit mostly at the bottom of your tank, and if you look suuuuper close, they look like tiny tiny catfish 😁

I have a tank mostly full of fancy tail guppies 2 or 3 neons and a clown flush

My albino Cory catfish has been sitting on the glass in the front of my tank Laying 3 clutches.. I'm so excited I have a 10 gallon tank I'm going to try very gently to put the little fry in the separate tank and I'm trying to figure out what to feed them

My guppies play live Phish live births no eggs

@@dorisglecer4102 I think this podcast is gone?

Good question, Riccardo 🤔 Do you know how many males and females you have? Are your eggs growing fungus and can you tell if they're fertile?

Thank you for tuning in btw ☺️

@@JillsFishRoom Since i've heard that Corys sometimes do spawn and lay infertile eggs amongst females the fact that i see eggs doesn't mean that i necessarily have females and males. However from the colour of some eggs i can say that some do start to develop and are fertile but develop fungus or will stay around 8 days without hatching with no fungus but thats if i put methaline blue. I do look at their fins but depending on how they swim they seem pointed or rounded so no matter what i do I'm always unsure of their sex. Thanks a lot for your interest and effort in helping me.

@@JillsFishRoom I only tuned in because the vid was great ☺️ great job.

Yes actually! It would really be a small amount but if your tank is heavily planted / has a lot of hiding places, then you could end up with some random adults showing up 🙂 They'll take longer to grow because they would be competing for food of course. I watch this woman youtuber that started with 7 gold laser cories, and a few years later had a shoal of 20 or so!

hehe we both stay up past our bedtime owo

Lolll thank you! 😙 I agree... There's not enough of us 😢

@@JillsFishRoom it's certainly nice to see. I think too often people lose track of dreams, goals and interests, in favor of things like social media and bad relationships LOL.
