Corydoras eggs usually hatch at around 4-5 days. I don't know if that number varies based on what species of cory you're talking about, but it might.

From what I've read, cory fry live off the egg sac for the first 48 hours or so, and can then be fed microworms. As they start to grow, newly-hatched brine shrimp can replace microworms.

I know its kind of late since they already have hatched and everything, but a really good website for breeding cories is 'http://www.scotcat.com/factsheets/c_paleatus.htm' This site is for paleatus, but they have sites for almost all cories.

I spent a whole day trying to find cory breeding info when I found eggs. There really isnt a lot of info on them out there. Mine had eggs about 2 months ago and I have 48 baby corys now that have survived! I learned a lot from the experience and know what to do and not to do now. I took pieces of advice from several forums and websites. Now what to do with all the babies!
