Help with cory spawn?

Berger · Post by **Berger** » 03 Dec 2003, 18:39

When I do waterchanges lately my males cories try to get the females to spawn but they have nothing of it.
Is there anything I can do to help get the process going?

Do the waterchanges daily, sometimes it needs a prolonged effort, so keeping the males excited is the best thing to do. Having said that I am assuming the females/s are fat with roe.

Some of the females look alittle fat...
How big of water changes? its a 30g tank..so can I do just a couple gallons?

I would say at least 5 gal and use cooler water to replace what you take out. as cold as it comes from the tap will be OK, as you are only changing about 15% the temperature change will not be that great.

What species are we dealing with?
