    Hey what a CNY !

    DEA u r right ! Is the Sterbai from the lower tank instead of the Aeneus.
    The rain must be kicking them out (Joking, actually I done a water change in a rush on the day I arrived in Singapore ). And they just spawned the next.

    I am still waiting for something to happen to the upper tank.

    One thing I notice is that the Sterbais are large enough to laid 4-5 eggs at a time. Counted 3 batch of eggs (QTy= 13). Th whole tank seems excited especialy the Trilinatus Cory younsters.

    But there aren't much cover in the tank and seem like they are forced to stick some on the woods. This time most likely I will not remove the eggs as I won't have time to care for them if they are fertile.

    haha, congrats! again!
    sorry, just to check with you, at what size(adulthood? teenhood?) do corydoras spawn?
    And do LFS stock their male and female corydoras together? I tried sexing the C.aeneus today, i think i saw a difference in size at the dorsal area, but i can never be too sure.

    Female Sterbai abt 2" and round. Male 1/2" smaller and slim - Plan view.
    Last counts ~40 eggs []

    Aeneus Cory can grow much bigger(5&quot. 2" size starts spawning.

    LFS unlikely to split them. Get grp of 6 to increase likelihood mix.
    Read a few ways among the species to ID sex however can never be sure.
    For size, it can be a younger female or an older male.[:]

    Hey glad to hear that they are ok. Gravel pic magnification give me a scare. Small gravel should be ok, just keep a lookout if frys start to disappear.

    Egg => Hatch => frys Pics ... check out !

    That's actually use as Hatching Net (abt 5inch)- normal catching net from any LFS. Just make sure the mesh is dense enough that the fry will not squeeze out.
