Peppered Corys spawning

My Peppered Cory cats have been spawning about a week now, yesterday took some pics. Saw some babies the other day in the gravel but they seemed to vanish(maybe the parents ate em), so I went and bought a net breeder at Petsmart to put the eggs in. This afternoon I see a couple of babies in there, I manage to save about 20 eggs. Still looking for LiquiFry baby fish food. None of the other fish or the snail seems to bother the eggs. There are also three small otos and a snail with the cats in a 29 gal tank. I also took a video of the female cory placing the eggs on a leaf. This was some of the toughest photo work I have done; those fish just won’t stay still! Hope you enjoy.

Aw, that's great! I don't know aything about cory fry, sorry.
You could try First Bites, I think Hikari makes it.
My cories spawned today too but momma ate the eggs as fast as she layed them.

I just noticed If you look closely at the first photo the female has three eggs clutched between her fins. And the snail had some eggs placed on him! Thanks for looking.

HaHa, cute!
Guess that's one way to keep the snail from eating them!

Great pics, not an easy thing to do with spawning corys I wouldn't think. It's mayhem in my tank when the corys spawn, I can't imagine being able to get a decent pic of anything in there, so well done!
