| Update on cory fry Well, as I said in "I killed it...", one of the two died today. Here, though, is the one that survived: I don't think he got any bigger though, but it is a better pic.

| Nothing new on the fry yet but I do have more eggs. They'll probably hatch tomorrow or the day after.

| wow... that is such a SWEET looking fry!! WAY cooler than my guppy fry! hahaha.
How are you getting your cories to spawn? Are they just doing it naturally or are you breeding them on purpose?

| I read that they spawn when there is a temperature change. For some reason they have been spawning almost every week now although the temperature remains the same. I'm not trying to breed them. I only have one male and one female and I've heard that you should have more males than females in order to make sure the eggs get fertilized. They seem happy together so I just leave them alone. The eggs haven't hatched yet so I'm assuming they will tomorrow.

| The eggs hatched last night but I was too late. They are all gone. I assume Kissyboots ate most of them. Oh well...
