Akron's fall auction last year was really profitable for me. I
got my group of Albino Corydoras Aeneus there, In addition too my long fin
corys. These albino corys were placed in a 20 gallon tank for conditioning. They
were fed a diet of frozen brine shrimp, earthworm and shrimp pellets and
cucumbers. When I noticed the females getting heavy with eggs, the colony was
moved to a 5 gallon tank with a temperature of 78 degrees and a PH of 7.6.
I placed black construction paper around the tank to darken it up and waited.
It was just a few days after the move was made that the corys
spawned, and there were over 50 eggs along the sides of the tank. I removed the
parents and waited to see if any of the eggs would hatch. Three days later I had
about 35 little wigglers in the tank.
I started feeding the fry banana worms. They grew quickly and after
a couple weeks they were eating frozen brine shrimp and crushed earthworm and
shrimp pellets. These guys really gobble up food and after 60 days, I have about
32 nice albino cory cats.
