Sometimes they need a few cycles to get up and running. They drop the eggs and the male doesn't fert them. Or they lay 'em and promptly forget about them etc.... I am sure other peope will be able to give you more info than me but I don't want you to feel neglected.... ~~~ My fish blow kisses at me all day long ~~~ |

Just give them some time & hopefully they'll breed. http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/s8xi5heh/my_photos http://www.deathbydyeing.org/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/corydoras/ Member of the Malta Aquarist Society - 1970. http://www.maltaaquarist.com |
