I love doing the ol trick of filling their tank 50% with water ...or rather let the water evaporate, with tds rising and temp rising 3 degrees over a week or so...then bam fill it with 4 to 6 degree cooler water and add a HOB or power head...live worms. It works 7 out of 10 times for me... Nevermind, you just said the same thing basically haha
I don't even need to do that. Mine just spawn after a water change.
Normally i dont comment, but this is a great vid. Love how your straight to the point, great details. Covers it all. Love from holland
Always loved watching the corey's going to town on the bottom. They got used to me quite easy, I watched for hours so close..... they get used to ya over time too. What a cooperative fish in almost every tank.
Love to see these guys....
I’m currently raising some peppered cories and bronze to adulthood (about 20 of each) and although my LFS said they’d take them in trade I’m having separation anxiety and thinking I may keep them all. They look so happy and fun when they all swarm together like in the wild.... this causes multiple tank syndrome...lol
Meant to merely be an experiment to see if I could do it, it’s the most fun I’ve had in a long time...
Can’t wait to see your future videos and follow up on these cute guys!
Thanks so much !
😊
Well, here we are a month later, & my largest group of bronze/emerald Corys just produced about 40 or 50 eggs. I saved them & stuck them in a breeder box where the predatory tankmates can't get to them! Guess I need to set up a separate tank for them, it's a pretty brightly-lit, fully planted tank.
Are bronze and emerald the same species?
Good day. I found seven Cory eggs in my tank today🎉. Luckily I was practicing growing the food with the broccoli two days ago. hopefully it works. If they don’t make it; it’s no big deal I’m just glad my fish are happy and healthy. thank you for all your work it’s really appreciated.
Brilliant. If you haven't got infusoria don't worry you can very finely crush flake food up and add small bits to the aquarium. Just make sure you don't over feed ok.😀👍
MARK'S AQUATICS finally I see a few fry. I don’t know if they will make it but it sure was nice knowing I collected the eggs and got them to hatch.
The cats look so calm coming out from your hand and getting cozy in the tank
Thanks for all your amazing videos. I absolutely love watching them. I’ve successfully bred Zebra Danios from watching yours and now after watching this video I brought in my peppered Cory’s from my outside pond to my tank inside and they bred that first night got about 50 eggs to date so cheers mate from Australia and keep up the great work
That's great news 😀👍
Hey Mark!! Thanks for another great video, super interesting and super informative. One of the reasons I keep coming back and watching and re-watching your videos is because of your style. Yeah, you jump about a bit between topics but the topics are all relevant and real and actually that's what keeps the interest, keeps the content flowing and makes your videos multi-dimensional. DON'T CHANGE ANYTHING!!!
Hi Mark. Another great video. I have Peppered and Panda cory's, such delightful fish to keep. My Peppered cory's breed in a heavily planted community tank, they don't seem to need a trigger to breed. PH 7.5 and temp 20 C. Everything seems to be a trigger for them, water change day, Mum walked past the tank, day ending in a Y .. they are prolific breeder's for me :)
My Panda's aren't as prolific. I had to breed them in their own tank. they certainly bred in the community tank, but predation on their eggs from other fish was a problem, and they lay less eggs at a time. I put 1 female and 2 males in a heavily planted tank and left them to it. Fed them BBS daily and other foods, they like cucumber, and a 20% cooler water change and now have over a dozen baby's. PH 7.3 and temp 21C , Also put an almond leaf in there and snails for clean-up duty.
Super excited today my bronze and albino Cory's have been breeding like mad, thanks Mark for all the advice in your videos you are amazing
Thanks Dave. 😀👍
I love you and your channel. Your excitement and passion for what you do and your desire to help and teach others is wonderful! Keep up the great work! 😊
Thank you Karen. 😀 ⭐⭐
I got a lot in my grow out tank so excited and got more this morning
Also, what is your total watch time statistics for your videos? I usually let these videos go on in the background while I multitask because your videos are mainly static shots (straight-on and stationary). I think this works really well because these sorts of videos are extremely informational. Not sure how you see it, but the audio and your comments are almost more important than the video part of these uploads. Not to say the video isn't as important as the audio, but your simple method seems very effective!
They are slurping those bloodworms up like spaghetti, and it's adorable.
Thanks for all your videos. You always have very informative information and great details.
Awesome video as ever! I like to do a shot every time you say "okay" Good work sir!
I feed live blackworms as part of my varied diet for all my fish and I always say "time for spaghetti" when it's blackworm day. So cute watching them hunt, live food is so good for your fish. Mentally and physically, I think.
Hi Mark you know I have been waiting for this, fascinating I will watch it again tonight. Thank you so much couple of tips I will definitely try, been trying for nearly two years now. Females are always full of eggs loads of breeding behaviour males chasing but alas never any eggs. I have never tried adding cold water though its always been 2 or 3 degrees colder. Thanks, love to you and yours
The part about rolling the eggs is super accurate. Very gently run your fingers up the glass and the eggs will roll onto your finger. Then you relocate them into a breeder tank/plastic breeder mesh, and gently roll them onto that surface. As opposed to the razor blade and credit card method
I love breeding Cory species. Ive been using community tanks to encourage eggs in a group of 12...then plop em into my 10 gallon neocaridina tank, which also has other fry growing in it too...scarlet badis, CPDs and a few honduran red points (which get the boot soon ). Anyhow thanks for the video, mate!
lovely setup for breeding
Lovely little fish, aren't they? Nearly fearless, yet some of the gentlest you'll ever meet.
Yes thanks Mark my favorite fish to have in my tanks. Love your clips.
I always watch one of Marks breeding series when I need to calm. Thanks Mark. ;-}
you re the best man the way you help us and describe with details for us ... i really appreciate keep up the good work ♡
I'm new to the love of fish but I love cat fish of all types🥰... my dwarf crayfish are having babies also so thought check around for next stages for my fish and found your channel thanks for the advice 🙏...
One of my all time favorite fish keep mine in black crystal quartz sand to show off the colors and so fun to watch and have been keeping time for over 25years in the hobby on and off
I keep bronze, albino, sterbai, trilineatus, paleatus, and panda corys - one mixed group in a betta sorority + rasbora mix tank, the other group with some plecos, loaches and livebreeders. I've been dying to get my hands on some skunk corys and lasers but they're difficult to come by - they're all so weird and fun to watch!
Brilliant mate can't wait to see the salt water Adventure begin. a freshie to a reefer.
I love corys. I’ve got approximately 150 fry at the moment. The first ones I’ve brought up myself. I’ve got a community tank and they spawn nearly every time I make a cold water change. If they spawn at night the other fish have eaten the eggs, but this time I was lucky enough to see it and rescue the eggs. They’re eating freshly hatched Artemia and micro worms. And doing very well. I’m so excited as I’m fairly new in the hobby.
Congratulations Ann. Sounds like you have your hands full. They're lovely little guys. 😀👍
Great stuff, corys are a great fish. Full of character 🙏✌
Hi Mark, Corys are one of my favorites, thanks for this 'share' :)
Had two lots of corys laying today for the first time....Angelfish are having a banquet 🤣
@@AndrewKilvington Oh shit....lol
@@michaela-be4le time for a nursery tank 😁
Looking forward to this series, my bronze group spawn regularly but I never was able to keep the fry alive, i now have been successful with the last 2 and am currently rearing about 30 fry
Always loved corys! Only just got around to keeping them, (mine are hastatus though) and can sit and watch them for hours. Thanks for giving so much back to the hobby, I wish I had room to follow along!
Getting to the time of year I pull eggs out of my fancy goldy tank and stick them outside to fatten up over the summer, still got some from last year, if you were closer I'd send one over to you mate 😊👍
Awesome! Thanks for the great vid. Maybe I’m crazy but they don’t all look like they’re the same species 🧐🧐maybe some up close shots in the next video for an expert to identify.
One of them is darker than the rest. But all settled in now and the same colour.
@@MARKSAQUATICS the third one hanging out w/ the two aeneus looks like rabauti
Thank Mark.
You rock bro😎😎😎😎😎
Could you do a video of tour local petstore?
Yes I feel a lfs trip soon.
@@MARKSAQUATICS
That would be sensationally amazing Mark. Thanks for considering lfs video.
Could you do one on growing bbs to adults. I'm trying but no success. Wanna be able to feed adult brineshrimps to my fishes.
Hey Mark. I love your videos. greetings from south Africa
Thanks Markus 😀👍
these are exactly the fish I was hoping you'd breed. Thank you Mark!
Love this thank you just starting my.breeding adventure with corys
Hi Mark, can you keep shrimp in the tank when breeding egg layers? I have a colony of CPD's and was thinking of getting them to spawn in my shrimp tank but was wondering if the shrimp will eat the eggs?
Love your videos!
Small egg scattering fish are prone to to having there eggs eaten by shrimp as they're so small.
Brilliant video, my white clouds are fat but don’t know if they are sporting in the small tank. Ph of 7 and fed them up with blood worms
I think you do a great job of explaining things. Doesn’t seems to me that you ramble. I enjoy your commentary and excitement💦
I love corydoras keep up your top filming Mark.All the best Jeff
Hi Mark! I have no experience with breeding egg laying fish. I have Gold Barbs(Puntius semifasciolatus) and Glowfish Danios(Danio choprae) and i was wondering if you could do a "How to breed" on these guys? :)
Love that sand what brand is it mike
Hey hey hey! Ask and ye shall recieve! Awesome video, I'm sure plenty of us were waiting for this, thanks again!
Have a look at Cory Hastatus; very cute!
Hi, how many Cory males and females do you recommend to start and best type for 10/20 gallon tank? What kind are best for beginners? I also have hard water. What are good tank mates? They need to fit a 10 or 20 gallon. I like MEDAKA ORANGE RICE FISH and Phoenix rasboras, I like kuli loaches, I have one 29 gallon tank and I want to get stocking ideas. I have it planted. So with hard water I wish to keep cherry shrimp, a nerite snail,Cory's and or loaches and can you recommend. I also was wondering if you could do a video about the tiny Hawaiian red shrimp? And dwarf cray fish? Thanks for all your informative videos love your show!
loving this video i just got a breeding pair never bread these before this was very helpful ... just subscribed
Thanks for watching and subscribing.
Your Videos are very inspiring. Looking forward to some Freshwater NERITE SNAIL Breeding Video.
I’d love to see a video on Corydoras julii if you ever have time.
I've done a hoe to breed bronze Cory's. Check out my playlists.
Yay I have some eggs on my glass after following your advice
Hi Mark who doesn't like Cory's right?. I still need to add some to my tank, some great tips here thanks do much for sharing 👍
Glad you are breeding the bronze Cory's 👍
bro you are the God, thank you for all advices
So let me get this straight. The trigger is trickle a small amount of water back into the tank over a week or so? I'm using a 10 gallon tank. So I emptied out 50%. So I add a gallon Slowly to simulate rainfall accumulated that fluctuate the water temps to over the next few days to trigger spawning? I tossed in a couple almond leaves to lower pH. Am I on the right track Mark? And does it matter that they are salt and pepper Cory's? Earlier I thought I heard you say it doesn't matter as long as I follow your steps 😉. I've spawned lots of fish but these little ones will be my first time 🍒
Hi Mark, can you use any shrip in your tank for cleaning up babies and eggs that don't make it?
Fab video mark thank you. Love them little corrie's
Hi Mark thanks for your great videos , how do you get blood worms or water worms? other than buying I mean
Hi mark, really enjoyed the video very informative . I have a question please, when adding rainwater to lower the ph will this have an adverse effect on the fish? I was always told ph swings were very dangerous for fish and to always keep it stable. Thanks in advance
Thank you Mark for a really interesting video. I'm glad to inform you that I'm a NEW SUBSCRIBER 👍😷👍
Thanks for watching and subscribing 😀👍
I fancy breeding my 2 pepper corys(only 2 left after loses but they seem real happy maybe as I am under stocked with just rummy nose tetras and Otos. Had them for a year now, pretty big. Sure 1 is male and 1 is female. I have a 6 gallon planted with a few shrimp… could I use that to try breed them? Water quality excellent ph constant 6.5 well used to good food
love cory`s thank you very much Mark
Excellent video as always, thank you so much. Do you buy the live blood worms or raise them yourself? They are difficult to find where I live (BC, Canada) and super expensive to import.
I was totally shocked that my panda Cory and my bronze Cory actually had two dozen babies but they all look like pandas
Panda Cory's are beautiful little fish. 😀
Treasure hunt lol
Mark's new pirate Cory's
Nice video
Good video....but surprised at the effort you needed.
I bought a small school...approx 8...
The little buggers are spawning every other weekend at most. No special food, no water parameters...couldnt tell you the ph...22c-28c...barely 7 months old....
Awesome video as always. Thank you!!!
hopefully i can get my panda corys to breed too!
Hi mark...does this method apply 2 sterbai corys as well?
I’ve just got my breeding tank ready, will the Cory eat their own eggs or the fry
Man! Your subscriber count is sky rocketing!
Can you so a fry specific video .
How to raise. Like water changes you do . How often feed. What you feed . Lights on .
I've spawned alot if Bozemani fry but can't seem to keep them alive. :(
Please do cherry and gold barbs. Thanks.
What ratio male/female in a breedinggroup of Corys?
4 males to 1 female. 😀👍
how hard is it one a scale of 1 to 10.
i really want to breed them but i dont know if i have the skill.
Would I be able to breed Corry’s if there are a few Amano shrimps in the tank?
what´s the name of that superficial plant?
My eggs already hatched and I didn't get the chance to separate the eggs from the tank
I turned off the tank filter and I can see the fey moving at the top surface of the water. Should I remove the adult snails and cory cats I have currently in the tank(no fish in tank) I'm scared to use a net to get the adults and what if the fry get stuck when I put the net in.
The first egg layer I ever bred and successfully raised fry was the Corydoras, the species was known as the salt & pepper catfish.
Can you breed kuhli loaches?
Just subscribed. Great video.
Thanks for watching and subscribing rich.😊👍
Can u breed different types of Corydoras, for example a albino cory and a panda Cory ?
Great tips Mark
Hi Mark, I found your channel quite recently. I appreciate very much your videos and the way you explain things. Do you think peppered corys (Corydoras paleatus) may survive winter outdoor here in the south of Italy, with lowest temperatures just above freezing point?
Hi. No i doubt it. Best indoors at 25c.
@@MARKSAQUATICS Thanks Mark!
Nice,can I keep cory cats with Red cherry shrimp? I think so but some people say dome species will grow big and eat them
No Cory's won't eat them. They're fine. 😀👍
@@MARKSAQUATICS
Aa great thanks,I really wanne get panda corys
Thanks for the awesome video as usual mate. 😍
Also great video mark👍
👍
How big are they mine are about 3cm will they breed
Mark, I have two albino Cory fish that I love an d I was wondering if when distressed or during water changes can I put an aloe Vera leaf to help them from the distress cause from the water changed.. thanks
I don't think It would hurt as water conditioner has it in for that reason. 😀👍
Hey mark I got quite a weird question what gender chases what gender when they maye
Hi Mark please can you tell my why my cory keep eating her eggs she lays them then east them fast.Iv got 2 females 5 male i did save some before but now she eats them as soon as she lays them.All the best Welsh man that lives in north London.Jeff
Cory's are little pigs for food. Feed them well even during spawning that will temp them away.
Is the piece of wood common privet hedge? The type that gets white flowers in summer/autumn if grows tall enough?
Yes it is.😀👍
Hi, I'm french so I didn't understood all you said, and I have a question about my corydoras. I "rescued" a corydoras julii, someone I know was about to get rid of him and I took him, now he's in my 80 gallon since months. The problem is, he's alone... and my petstores don't have this variety and seems to not be able to have some.. I read everywhere that we CAN'T put different variety of corydoras because they can't recognize them together, like If I have Julii, I have to add some Julii and not another variety or my Julii will not go with the group.... true or myth ??? Sorry for my english btw
Myth! If they look similar enough then they will be ok. I have two albino, two green, and two peppered and they all school together and in pairs
Teach us how to breed Chocolate gouramies and pangio khulii! I'm getting khuliis and chocolates next week and I want to breed them so bad!
My accidental breeding setup for Panda Corys is a bunch of java fern attached to wood on top of a pile of rocks in a fifty five gallon community tank. Things are getting out of hand but it seems so mean to breakup the panda pile.
If they're happy leave them to it. 😀👍
Just leave the eggs and they'll just eat them
Hi mark is it unusual for 1 of my big female corys to lay eggs without a male chasing her or mating with her ,i ve been watching for a few days now and she hasnt mated but is laying eggs everywhere?thanks mate
Check they're not mating out of sight. You'll soon know if they hatch or not.
Hi Mark! How big/how old do they have to be before they’re ready to breed?
About 18 months. 2" long 😀👍
MARK'S AQUATICS thanks
Hey Mark my otocinclus are breeding but I haven't seen any eggs. It's the second time this week they have been t-positioning like mad but again no eggs. Love to know what you think . Like are they eating them or maybe they are extra small and my eyesight isn't able to see them?
How long have you had them.
Not long maybe a month.@@MARKSAQUATICS
