Aquatopia Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 Hi, Could anyone in Christchurch who is currently breeding catfish please either PM me or say hi on this thread. I want to set up my own little breeding program - starting off easy of course - and would welcome your assistance and advice. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatBrat Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 What sort of catfish do you want to try to breed? Cheers, CatBrat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquatopia Posted April 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 Whiptails would be cool, but probably start with corydoras. I have to admit - i love most catfish though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramuk Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 I have bred the bronze cory catfish before. After they lay eggs, I moved them out of the tank (the eggs are very sticky, just use your fingers and roll them off of the aquarium walls). I used methlyne blue to avoid fungus problems. Kept them in a well aerated bowl. They hatched after a rather long time (around 10+ days) I have read that feeding brine shrimp to cory babies can cause problems. Micro worms etc are good. Lots of water changes + blood worm food to induce egg laying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
