C65 spawning
Posted: 16 Jul 2007, 14:02
Hello,
tomorrow morning, when feeding..there was something different in that tank...putting my glases on..the C65 had spawned...or are still going on...
Some eggs where at the tank walls, 3 on a Sagittaria pulsilla leave...and about 20 at the rear wall...layed in the coarse foam of the Hamburg-Mat-Filter...all about 1 or 2cm above bouttom...
And nice to see...as beginning to fungus...
Just recovered about 5 or so...and will look if there are a few more comming home after work.
Added some Methylen-blue.
They did not use the mop...
Is this typical ?...laying the eggs so "deep" shortly abouve the buttom ?
It's below a Javamoss covering the back wall and foam...
And what about the season ?...something untypical for most corys....
It's their first spawn...so there might bee a little loss due to the age of these youngsters...(got them in Sept'06 form Hans Evers...probaly 4 (?) month old...
What to do ? Heavy feeding for going on spawning or doing a summer-break ?
