congrats on the spawing . i would say after the color of the eggs that they should hatch any time soon :YMAPPLAUSE:
care to share some info about the parents , water and temperature values from when the spawing took place. maybe some info about the "triggers" used to get them in the mood for spawing .

Oh, seeing Corys in such condition breaks my Cory-loving heart =(( . You really should not keep your Corydoras in a bare bottom tank. Please get some sand in there, so the poor little fish can grow their barbels back...:-(
Bare glass bottoms will in many cases develop a bacteria film on the glass, which erodes the barbels off the Corydoras.

Mona my friend. Didn`t you talk warm about BB tanks for fry, or have you changed your mind b-)
If you blow up a pick of glass, it is not as smooth as we think:)

Birger...wake up :-p There's a huge difference. I'm not keeping anything in a tank that isn't cleaned and scrubbed thoroughly in hot water every day. That effectively removes any harmful the bacteria or prevents it from building up.
