Wonderful footage and wonderful explanation. As always. :)
You are already an expert in this labor-intensive method of breeding. What about to try natural holistic breeding: fry with their parents in the same aquarium on natural live food that exists in the aquarium itself, and not on dry powder and saltwater brine shrimp?
Do you have a website for fishies? Asking from San Diego. 😊
Nobody does breeding videos better, you knocked it out of the park AGAIN!!! I use the same method in my breeder box, I add sand but I also add oak leaves. An old time fish keeper told me that Cory fry need micro bacteria for gut digestion. I had a few big spawns in the past that all died at the 2 week mark. After I added the sand and organic matter it hasn't happened since. I also use a power head to trigger stubborn spawners, a big water change and some moving water. They can't say no! LOL
Cory fry and gut bacteria.. sounds like Eric Bodrock!
@@MakeMoreFishThe guys name was Joe Graffagnino, he was the President of the Brooklyn aquarium society and was one of those guys who bred hundreds of different types of fish. Sadly he passed away a few years ago.
"After a moment of silent reflection" 🤣
The best breeder we've ever seen !
Much ❤ from us
❤from india sir 🇮🇳
Great work! If you really want a challenge, you should try breeding Chili Rasboras. I don't think anyone has ever done it before.
Yes, please breed Boraras Brigittae
I just love every single video of yours. There are few of them, which I've already seen multiple times 😅 Can't wait for next! Cheers
I just found your videos last night. Your videos are amazing! New sub. I will immediately watch every video you release.
I know breeding is your focus, but it would be cool to see you put your skills to use on some behavior experiments (like preference chambers) or odd setups. I’ve been wanting to put some fish in a round pool with a labyrinth that connects to the start so fish can swim through the course and never reach the end.
Ur corydora breeding videos are so inspiring.Keep up the nice work.❤
You have convinced me to try to breed corydoras!!
I think for a common name polka-dot corydora or cheetah corydora would be great.
+1 for cheetah
one of the best youtube fish channels for sure!
btw have you ever thought about doing wild bettas for the channel?
there are some small mouthbrooding species which of course would showcase their nice reproductive behavior and can offer different difficulty levels, some very easy, some that can be borderline impossible (macrostoma). I'm currently trying to breed betta channoides and betta hendra with no success as of yet! your channel always inspires me to do things in a smart way so it would be nice to see your approach.
the coccina complex species can showcase interesting social behavior for a betta, might be somewhat challenging in regards to water conditions and suitable tank decoration to get them breeding.
always nice to see a new corydoras video :D
Beautiful spawn!
I think you invented a new branch of engieering. Fish breeding engineering.
Great video as usual. I have always admired your pristine setup and videos.
Aquacultural engineering. I think I missed my calling.
Always a great day when you drop a new video! ❤
really love your videos, cant wait to print one of these fry trays for myself!
Good job! Very entertaining and enjoyable.
The goat has uploaded
I love the quality of your videos! It makes it very enjoyable to watch
Wonderful video and footage , as always . Kudos to your skills 👌( filming , voice over and all nuances needed to create these wonderful documentaries) .
Great breeding video. I love you breeding videos thereall on point. Great job. Thanks for sharing
Sandy Band Corydora… is all that came to mind 😂
this video goes hard af
10:44 i love this perspective to view cories like this. They really look and act like cats ❤😂
I love watching your videos, the amount of effort put into them is amazing. A question though, will you do more shop talks? I love seeing a little progress and knowing more about the projects going on.
Yep, when I accumulate more things worth rambling about I'm sure I will.
Yaaaaaaaaaaay new video
Leppard cory definitely would have been a better choice than either of tha actual names 😉 it is definitely great to see that I'm not alone with the use of sand in breeder boxes 😁
The sand really seems to work well for bottom dwelling fry.
Spotted emerald tail Cory
I suggest Green-spot cory ( because of the green spot on their tail ), or phoenix cory ( because of the golden colour an longfins) as a new name
Yayyyyyy! Love Cory’s
This was insane mate great vid
"Blotchy leopards."
Awesome advice! I don't do water changes and my julii corys breed everyday. My temp is 82F. Have around 10 fry doing well, never removed the eggs and let nature take over..
Would be cool to see how different cories that swim in the water column breed! Such as corydoras guapore or elegans
Really was waiting for this one! What were those weird looking cories at the end though 🤔😉
Imposters!
great video as always. My name suggestion is Winged Corydoras :]
I like that. Something that calls out the massive flippers.
name suggestion: Emerald Spot Fairy cory (although perhaps avoiding "fairy" in the common name would be best to avoid confusion with C. atropersonatus)
Great video as always! You got any of the pygmy corys planned or perhaps in the works?
Something about the chemistry or bacterial profile of my tanks does not mix well with pygmies. When I can figure out what that is, I would certainly like to try.
Awwwww Look at them all. Suggested name Green and gold Corydoras (im australian, so biased haha)
Another great video! Is there any way to get your grow out boxes in UK? Thanks!
If you have a 3D printer, yes.
YEAH I LOVE CORY CATFISH!!!!
Hi what do you consider to be the best apisto in breeding and parenting? I have to choose a species for my 60 LT (around 15-20 gallons) and so I can only take one pair and I want the best possibility to have them breeding and taking care of the fry.
Btw I always love your videos they're the best
I don't think I have an opinion on that. They are all good parents in my experience. It's a characteristic of the genus. In a smallish tank I personally wouldn't worry about maximizing fry survival rate. They can spawn every 7-14 days so there will always be more fry if you want them.
Thanks for the video
And i want the difference between blood worms and tubofixe worms
Blood worms are an insect larvae. Tubifex are some kind of aquatic worm and typically come freeze dried and not frozen.
I don't know about this fish, but I really wish Corydoras/Hoplisoma Duplicareous could be called the Calico Cory
how do you quarantine fish in general?
Green spot leopard cory ?
out of curiosity are your tanks painted black or do you use a tint film?
They're all painted black
Do you know your exact tds or an estimate? I'm trying to breed them too and there's just no breeding behavior going on. Wondering if it's the hardness of my water since it's like 250ish, but my sterbais are doing great and breeding everyday in the same water.
At the moment it's about 60 but it varies throughout the year for me. When these spawned it was probably higher, 150-175 maybe.
Jean shorts Cory
I don't know how to process this. So I think that makes it a winner.
Assuming water quality remains good, is it possible to feed corydoras and other fry too much BBS such that they eat themselves to death?
For corydoras, I would say that's unlikely. Though I have a feeling they can't pass unhatched eggs very well. They don't eat them by choice, but if they do I don't think it's good for them. Other species, absolutely. They can wreck their swim bladders or worse by over eating BBS. Just in my observation.
Leopard Corys. Boom done
taken
@@MakeMoreFish dammit
I was going to suggest leopard cories, but it seems that a few cories already have that name (though they don't actually look much like leopards). Maybe jaguars instead? not sure lol
Leopard has come to my mind many times when looking at them. But you're right, I think it's taken.
black speckled corys for the name or peppered skinned corys =D
Emerald Spot Corydoras
I think that would lead to confusion becaus there is one named Emerald Corydora
Hey man can you breed "Angle Fish"
Sure
Peppered Corydoras
adofoi next please
I got some. See you next year.
Green-tailed leopard Cory? Green-tailed spotted Cory? Green-tailed Cory?
Have you ever considered hybridizing?
I would find that interesting
Copper Patina
maby: "spotted jades" is a good name for those corys
or maby something like Jade -spot Corydoras
or even leopard Jades
I like Jade Spot. That might be a winner.
Nice but still Bristlenose fish my best cat fish
And iam waiting how to breed red nose tetra fish .. thanks for your videos it's inspired me to breed alot of fish Egyptian 🇪🇬
These guys are so cute.
