MrEd Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 I have had 3 spawnings of Sterbai Cory's with the first bugging out so I scraped the next lot off and containered them in the same water and added Meth Blue and covered with black polythene to block out most of the light and the same thing. The next lot I added to the same container that I was treating a Pop eye Guppie with antibiotics and no fungus this time but went white and died. Are Sterbai difficult to breed as I have 3 male and 3 females in the tank and still no luck? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supasi Posted October 18, 2008 Report Share Posted October 18, 2008 Mine breed regularly, One male One female only. I find the best way is put them in a floating clear plastic container(so i can see them) containing tank water. Do water changes daily each day with main tank water and aerate it with a small airstone to privde water movement. They dont eat for about 24-36 hours after hatching , then I feed Micro worms or B shrimp. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmsmith Posted October 18, 2008 Report Share Posted October 18, 2008 White eggs often is a sign that they are not fertilized - did your first batches turned white too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEd Posted October 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2008 All batches turned white so must all have been sterile! I did the floating container with bubble stone thing but haven't tryed to pair them per tank. I figured the eggs are there so the more males present the better the chance of fertilization but I guess one pair makes more sense! I need more tanks .... never enough tanks!!!! :-?
