carpe_diem Fish Addict Dreamer Posts: 555 Kudos: 292 Votes: 51 Registered: 18-Apr-2004	Ive got two breeding nets of baby cories.. one with fry a few weeks old and the other with fry which have just hatched a few days ago.. ive been feeding the older ones with brine shrimp pellets is there anything else i can feed them for a bit of variety? I tried baby brine shrimp but it looked as if the brine shrimp were attacking them rather than the other way around! Truth doesn't always win friends but it influences them

I have tried but have been unable to find microworms! i will look around for powderedfood ... is there anything in the vegetable area to feed them?

Start with infusoria for the first week & continue with the others, till they are able to eat sinking pellets. http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/s8xi5heh/my_photos http://www.geocities.com/s8xi5heh/classic_blue.html http://groups.yahoo.com/group/buzaqq/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/corydoras/ Member of the Malta Aquarist Society - 1970. http://www.maltaaquarist.com
