Peppered Cory catfish eggs!

So my peppered cories in the 45 gal decided to lay some eggs yet again! They’re always breeding and laying eggs but we don’t really produce anything out of them.They either just get eaten by the larger fish, or they just get taken over by fungi. Some of the past clutches looked fertile, but they never produced any fry. We’ve also tried putting them in a breeder box but still, no fry. I’ve thought that baby cories would be adorable,but my brother doesn’t seem to care if they hatch or don’t hatch. Any tips for getting them to hatch and how to keep the fry alive?

I’ve managed to get 7 peppered cat fish eggs to hatch. Do u remove the eggs from your tank? I have a established fish tank for eggs only. I have a couple of plants in that tank , money wart & Hawthorn both easy grow plants if your lighting is good.
When I see my cats lay eggs I wait a few mins then take a razor blade angle it to remove eggs slowly if u try to remove to soon the eggs are soft.Then after removing the eggs u have to separate the eggs & put them carefully onto plants. The Hawthorn plants are good for the eggs because this plant floats , the reason u have to separate the eggs is because the eggs could get mold on them. Once they hatch they are so tiny u can’t see them . The eggs should hatch after one week around 3 weeks I use a really strong magnifying glass even then they are hard to see.I have Cory catfish they are so easy to get the eggs to hatch I had well over 60 eggs hatch. I had so many I didn’t know what to do with all of them. I gave more then half away. I have 3 tanks 2 with fired bellied toads. & 1 turtle tank. I put the rest of my babies in those tanks & I gave some to a science teacher where I work for her class room. I hope my advice helps u & good luck

I have to adult & 1 female & 7 babies.as far as raising the babies if u have an established tank there is plenty of algae & other stuff for the fry to eat. Once u can actually see them then u can feed them blood worms & algae tablets

 

That's a beautiful female !
