    James! How'd you get your oto's to breed? Or was it just an accident? I have 1 in my amazon tank but I'd like to get more.

    I think it's a compliment to the owner when fish breed in your tank. Unless of course you have Convicts or Live Bearers. It gives more of a ecosystem feel when they breed like in nature.

    Just letting nature take its course. Not trying to doing anything special. At the moment just trying to keep the tank stable with all the existing parms. Trying not to alter anything.

    Thinking they are corydoras eggs, since the one bronze one is chubby and the other corys are chasing it around the tank. (which is not typical for them, since they are normally really lazy)?

    Ps. I did manage to take a few and transfer them to "the bag" and stick them in my breeder.

    Well they don't look like snail eggs which is good. :) You're probably right, they're cory eggs. Congrats. :D

    Came home and I see the 1 cory swimming all over the tank (think maybe he's moving them? since they apparently aren't there now)...still have a few in "the bag" so semi-hopeful.

    Hors' devors! They will munch em down if you leave them in the tank unfortunately. Good luck with the ones in the breeder. Let us know how they turn out.

    Hikari First Bites
    Powder your flake food
    Zoo 9 in 1 artificial artemia
    Baby Brine

    (any of the above will work in a pinch)
