Well, it looks like another batch of Albino Cory eggs has come and gone with no success this time either! It's really getting frustrating as this is the third time in a row!
The deal is that I'm 'harvesting' the eggs once they are laid and fertilized into a net breeder thing and going from there. I usually get quite a few to hatch out, but then they start dying off after a day or so of being free-swimming. It seems to me that they are starving and nothing seems to help, so I want to be prepared for the next go-round! So far I've tried baby brine eggs (fozen-type), baby powered food, liquid baby fry food, brine shrimp tablets, and even the 3-day, slowly disolving feeders, but nothing seems to help!
For the next batch, I'm planning on getting a 2 1/2 gallon tank or similar set up and transfer the eggs to when they are laid. Then if I can figure out the food thing, I should be in business!
So what do newly-hatched baby Cories eat??!!
Thanks,
Bill C.
