AllFishNoBrakes Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Super surprised, wasn’t expecting this at all, but we have Bristlenose eggs/wigglers! Obviously I was late to the party as a few have already hatched, and more are hatching as soon as I put them into the tumbler. Yolk sacs on these guys are huge! A few wigglers didn’t make it to the tumbler, and are bouncing around the tank so I’m excited to see if they make it. We’ll see. What do you guys feed your Pleco fry? My current plan is to move them to my Ziss breeder box when that shows up and give them algae wafers, zucchini, green beans, and sinking waters. Probably some baby brine shrimp as well. Any other hot tips you pros have? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tumbler that the eggs are in? It’s a Ziss product. Aquarium Co-op sells it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllFishNoBrakes Posted January 20, 2023 Author Share Posted January 20, 2023 Oh, word. I’ve bred a couple types of Cory’s. In my experience it’s good food and time. Check your tank often for eggs and when you see them, pull them and put them in the tumbler. My Albino Cory’s spawn all at once in big batches. My Julii’s have been spawning near daily, but like 10 eggs at a time (or at least 10 I can see) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
