My albino cories seem to lay eggs once every few weeks or so. I never end up with fry for one reason or another. Figured I would take some pictures anyways ;) How do they look?

Thanks :) I just moved the eggs into a container that is floating in the tank that the parents are in. Then put a small air pump in the container. Hoping it works out okay. This is the first time I have moved any eggs.
 
Just put them into a plastic container with an air stone . Add a drop of quick cure . Float the container in your tank( this will keep the temp in the container right ) Wait 3 days and they hatch.

Real nice pics by the way :)
 
Unless PLENTY of plant growth and hiding places are in the tank you will probably have to move them. I moved my first eggs about 6 months ago and after that left them in the tank. The initial ten that i removed survive only now from NOT removing the eggs i have 50 baby cories.
 
I've moved the eggs to a small container floating in the tank so there is not a drastic change in chemistry and temperature. Then once hatched i plan to move them to another tank to grow out.
 
I wait about 3 -5 days after they hatch and put them into the 10 gal with all the other babies. Man DO I HAVE A TON OF BABIES . There is no way I could ever count them . The whole bottom of the tank in the gravel is all cories :)

Good luck with yours.
Also I read somewhere that you MUST have worms or baby brine to raise baby cories. I only use First Bites and crushed tropical crisps.

That's what I use too
