Corydoras weitzmani spawn

Post by mewickham »

I've got a few Corydoras weitzmani in a 70-gallon. I'm not sure how many, as I hardly ever see them. For some reason, they like to hide a lot. They must have spawned at some point, though, as I just saw a 1" juvenile swimming around-- a pleasant surprise. It's especially surprising since there are two 6" clown loaches and a 6" pleco in that tank, as well many small fish.

Cool beans. I think they are one of the better looking corys.

very nice.. they are supposed to be a fairly easy species to spawn but I didn't ever have any luck with my colony.. I'm thinking our first group was wildcaught but I know we bought some other aquarium bred ones to add in to the colony. we ended up selling most of them and still have one or two with some other various cories. congrats!

Nice job, Mike!
My C. weitzmani were wicked egg eaters, so getting fry from them was tough as it seemed they always spawned as I was falling into bed and the eggs were always gone when I got up.
But every now & then they goofed up and spawned on one of my days off. Their fry are cuties.
