Hello everybody, recently i bought the corydoras metae , they look really nice and i want to breed them

I have everything at my disposal for breeding them, but i am not sure my breeding tank is big enough.
I have all kinds of frozen food so that would't be a problem
But i have a 20L tank with a heater and filter +a sand substrate

Will they breed in this tank ?
And if they will, do i have to prepare them for breeding in the breeding tank or in my normal tank?

Thank tank will work just fine, condition them in thank tank because that tank is their new home.Good luck and keep us posted
Tony

Okay thank you for your response ! how should I set up my tank ? now it has a little filter, a heater and a sand bottom

Have you checked out the info for Corydoras Matae in the cat-elog.http://www.planetcatfish.com/common/spe ... cies_id=24.

How many do you have?

Give them a mop just in case. Here I collected eggs mainly in the mop, very few on glass just the one touching the mop. I did not look under plants leaves, maybe I should.

Good luck!

@corywhale, did you read this Shane's World article?

So you want to breed corys?

Cheers, Eric

I have 7 now
And I will give them a mob and maybe an anubias plant .
I have read the article but not all the corydorass species are the same I guess , some are a little bit harder.
@francois mtl, did you breed cory metae?

Yes I just did that! Well they breed for me...
Fry are growing up with some other cory fries, I put some pictures in this post ( http://www.planetcatfish.com/forum/view ... &start=100 ).
Good luck with your breeding project.

Okay nice to hear that !
So, I just feed them alot of high quality frozen foods in my 20L tank for 2 weeks. And then I will start waterchanges ?
