[@cheemda9252]

Please never end this series

[@LogacysAquaticLove]

I couldn’t agree more

[@LogacysAquaticLove]

Could not agree more!!

[@jamesjamesnet]

So true

[@mothernaturesaquatics]

Its not messy, its natural! The plants keep the water sustainable

[@skyejagger5389]

My heater came unplugged and shocking, my panda corys loved the colder water, they laid eggs! I had 21 grow up. Love my panda corys!

[@Justasimpleguyhu]

It’s so lovely to see a young 21 years old with a mindset and business runner !!! Please continue and keep it up! You will reach very high levels like that! Finally someone with a a real touch what young generation lost today! Continue and never stop!

[@scottroh1969]

Thanks!

[@MettaTrance]

I just had my first spawn from my albino Corys and I’m guarding those eggs like a paranoid parent omg I’m so excited 🐠

[@grimwolge]

Videos and photos don't show just how amazing these corys are in real life !

[@colinboneham7387]

I loved keeping Corys mine used to breeding like hell after a water change & the fish shops round me couldn’t get enough of them.

[@lefish5277]

Corydoras are such beautiful fish! I just had to rehome mine because I moved recently but they went to a big new home and they make any tank just so beautiful. The panda corys are my personal favorites

[@TheTapoutttt]

Keen to see part 2 of the new fish warehouse…love your work young fella 👌

[@garageaquatics2023]

I just got my first spawn of Bronze Corys! What a blast! They really are so cute, and the whole thing was a complete surprise.

[@rickgrimezz3942]

I had 2 Bronze Corydora females in with my Gold Laser Colony... and woke up one morning to the Bronzes mating with the Gold lasers... that's when I found out they were both in the same family... and odly enough... the offspring ended up being Gold lasers... even t though it was a Bronze/Green Aneas Corydora and a Gold laser male cross. Very interesting to say the least. Female Bronze Corydoras... reproduce with a lot of food. So they are easy to breed. I call the offspring RUSTY Lasers. But they look like Gold Laser Corydoras... with a bit darker green to their body and a Deep Gold line.

[@Timzyzz]

Rusty lasers haha I like it.

[@rickgrimezz3942]

@@Timzyzz The genetics look strong... they all got that solid Gold Line. Goldish yellow fins and underbelly... and a lighter green side color. They legit look cool. I wish I could start a new genetics... when these were fry... I kept 6 to see what I could get... 2 died... and 4 lived... I have 3 Males and 1 Female Rusty Laser Corydoras. The regular Anaeus females and the 4 Rusty's are all in their own tank now. I might throw my most colorful Gold Laser male in there to breed with the Rusty Female to strengthen the gold line and yellowish fins/underbelly. See what gen 2 looks like. Who knows... might end up calling them Busted Lasers by the end... Probably should document with photos. anyways glad you liked the post.

[@Timzyzz]

@@rickgrimezz3942 I've had my bronze breed with sterbai not intentionally and they produced what looks like a lil leapard, a single Cory which looked completely different from all mine on a rock one day during feeding time greeted me , no idea how it survived but I'm greatful haha

[@alecgarcia7744]

Please give us an update on betta fry!

[@FishyReview]

I've got 12 gold lasers and I've got to try this. Thanks for the video!

[@carybritton4178]

So glad I found your channel bro I feel I’m getting awesome info before diving into breeding certain species just like this Thanks for all you do for the hobby man 🤘🏼

[@rafaelbabilonia8357]

Thank you so much my lasers have layed so many eggs and now i have over 30 fry with your method.

[@emmaash1811]

Can you show some detail on the breeder box with the air uplift tube that’s a great idea

[@ronlafond5288]

Thanks, Nick! Great stuff.

[@ivanscottw]

I might want to try something else.. I have a truckload of bronze corys now and I realized there might a 3rd component to the trigger : Besides temperature and food, it might also be air pressure related - the last time I had an unexpected spawn in my main tank was when a big thunderstorm came by my place - looked the meteorological data at the time and there was a very significant drop of pressure.. and we all know how fish are sensitive to atmospheric pressure ! So basically : - A big storm comes in (pressure drop) - Massive rainfall (Temp drop) - Food festival (due to the rain) I bought myself some utility buckets with airtight lids, and see if I can mount an air valve and a pressure gauge and try to validate that theory !

[@wendygillard2133]

Well done Nick.

[@sugars205]

So I’m on my third batch of gold lasers and learning a lot. I’m in the UK so I have to put a heater in the tank with them!! The lesson learnt this time, don’t leave the heater on the bottom of the aquarium 😢

[@tomdoyle6030]

I recently had a batch of 25 peppered Cory's and it actually happened by mistake when moved all other fish to a new planted tank and then discovered ( just before draining ) about 3 days later there was fry swimming about , amazing lil things . Now hoping in time my orange venasalian breed in my tank when a lil older lol

[@jc13781]

ive been waiting for another video!!! i hope your new shop is coming along nicely. thanks for the update

[@p3teytran]

Can't wait for my gold lasers to breed! Black worms are hard to come by right now so been having to use freeze dried tubifex worms or frozen bloodworms. Appreiciate you sharing mate!

[@glenn3762]

You can order online.

[@AquascapingCube]

Great stuff. Corys are one of the fish that look super cute no matter how old they are.

[@vany7699]

Did you spawn black kuli worm before

[@gardockis.playground]

Love your content.. what was the final yield. You said you collected around 100 eggs?

[@justlovely36]

I didn’t realize I had a breeding pair in my tank until one day I saw a baby panda so cute.

[@johannafischer51]

I got a little group of these beautiful corydoras this week and as always try to get as much information about them as I can :) Thank you so much for this very helpful and interesting video about their breeding. learned a lot!

[@julietrotman2455]

awesome video - thanks so much for all the details here!

[@Venividivicismike]

I make use of an bankcard or some plastic card to get the eggs of the glass and back in the old days i used a coffecup/muk to put the eggs in with small airstone and some esa2000, and after that in an 5 liter fishtank with waterlevel just above the heater (if you let it lay on its side horizontale ) coz the fry can drown if the water level is to high in thise fase). Nice video again👌🏻 keep it up. Hello from Holland 👋🏻

[@skipper4740]

do more bettas breading please

[@corbinswinney3112]

When you hook the breeder box back up to the tank do you just let the methalyne blue run into the main tank?

[@plugg4r]

Looking forward to these going on the website ;)

[@wilhelmdekock2637]

Awesome video. Well done

[@mindnova7850]

Hello! Could you teach us how to hatch live food like daphnia or brine shrimps. I’m trying to get my foot into the live food thing but I don’t know where to start. I really appreciate it!

[@chrismicrogreensandfish]

Top stuff I wait for your videos now, keep up the good work

[@Only1Sosa.]

My fave style of video, where you take us through the whole process Cant get enough tho lol thanks as always for sharing

[@simonschmunkamp7717]

Cool but when are WE getting the Update on the fish room???

[@WahPiang]

Gold laser Cory are beautiful.

[@PULAG]

You may have mentioned in video but maybe I've missed it, what are the plants at the top of the tank where the corys were dropping eggs upon the leaves?

[@m_vibe_x6699]

I bred my first bettas thanks to you!☺️

[@bobbymalta73]

Thank You.

[@joziaqua]

Love the channel dude! Appreciate your authentic approach and the way you share your knowledge no strings attached. You're a legend! Cheers 🍻

[@BlakeOfTheJones]

I was looking for this 2 days ago. Stoked thanks heaps mate!

[@lowercaseguy9309]

they look really nice

[@Beetlejuice-10]

Hey mate I have started breeding shrimp but I have no clue how to get them to, watched videos and they all say different things, what do you do to trigger them to breed

[@tomdoyle6030]

I believe est way to help shrimp breed is leave them be of course keep them at all the right conditions but I believe the less changes in tank the better , also just make sure the shrimp you are trying to breed are not amanio shrimp as that's a whole different story which involved brackish tank for the eggs .. that makes things alot more complicated lol

[@DuzzyDobbin]

Hi there, Great ep, great channel and content. The meth blue how/when did you remove it and after how long with eggs?

[@rgeelhoed6226]

And again.. you always inspire me to do new things in my own fishroom and breeding program. Thnx mate. Greetings from the netherlands

[@tonydeleeuw3712]

Love it man, such an awesome series. Again nothing better than watching all these awesome creatures go from tiny fry to adults. Thanks dude!

[@alchemist670]

What is your process of changing out the water with methylene blue with the water from the tank?

[@markfranklin8831]

that's awesome thanks for sharing

[@olthousem02]

You are so inspiring

[@kellyharrison5184]

Another excellent and informative video. Big thanks!

[@birddiaries2997]

I love watching your videos I learn so much your new fish room is amazing I'm so glad for your success thanks 😊👍

[@annys_fishtanks7770]

Loved this video!!!

[@nunstersplace]

The secrete to getting cory cats to breed is feeding them. They will detect the abundance amount of food and that means it's time to breed. As simple as that. I have used the chicken left over in the can from feeding my dog and that gets them to breed.

[@therandomvlogger3143]

really enjoy watching your videos keep up the good work

[@thewalters694]

This is amazing mate.

[@suffysdave]

Do you think I can have Amano shrimp in a tank where I try breeding Corry’s?

[@kornicopula]

nice vid! What sort of methylene blue do you use? and what percentage is the methyl. blue? Thanx!

[@Les-OZZYTHEOSCAR]

That is a really great quality video ! Well done , very impressed

[@NaginiFay]

How is the shrimp crossing experiment going?

[@Maxfraser_]

hey nick i recommend making a mini pond for spring and you can put outside you can breed nearly anything

[@jag5709germany]

Awesome video. Just wish you uploaded more.

[@MohamedArham69]

Would some ice work to help them spawn? I'd imagine it's less stressful than water changes

[@ruidadgmailcanada8508]

Try it and report back please. I think we’re trying to mimic the rainy season: fresh cool water, low ppm coming in suddenly. I was lucky (by being lazy) to get my Corys to spawn. Hadn’t done a water change in 3 months in my heavily planted 200L community tank. Finally did and got 3 spawns over 3 weeks. Same Cory’s had been there for almost 3 years without any romance.

[@glenn3762]

How would clean water with less effluent be stressful?

[@kennethbarrett6469]

Great success on breeding Gold laser cory cat fish, Can you do a video on all species of fish that don't need a heater, cause my LFS says theres only a few, I'm positive there's more then a few species of fish that don't need heaters, plus what Pleco's don't need heater if there is any

[@DavidTorres-fb9lh]

Can you make a video breeding bandit corys ? I recently got some adults and reall want to breed them.

[@nedsfishtips]

Great video Nick keep it up!

[@cheemda9252]

Update on bettas?

[@marufhasan1994]

I'm watching all of you videos one by one

[@haroldmclarty7317]

Nice video nick.

[@the_adapter8610]

Hey. I have been wondering if you can feed defrosted Frozen baby brine shrimp from fish stores to Betta fry

[@EastEndAquariums]

Amazing mate, learnt a lot from your videos.

[@chrisduell4210]

Definitely one of the coolest corys out there one I really want to breed in the future when I have the space. Thanks for another awesome video.

[@horizonfishkeeping]

Can you use almond leaf instead of meth blue or is there no comparison thanks

[@DarkPassenger928]

Hello, seeking your advice. I have tried to breed my Venezuelan Corydoras 3 times so far, I can't seem to have them survive more than 7 days after hatching. Surprisingly I'm using the same breeder box as you, also doing methylene blue, a bubbler stone. After hatching (5 days) I remove the bad eggs, do a 60% water change and then connect the intake to main tank. I start feeding them after 2.5 days fry powder and trying to keep the breeder box as clean as possible. Are you keeping your breeder box clean while fry are in there? Video shows lots of debris. I'm thinking for attempt #4, I will use clean "virgin" water from a running empty tank and avoid any bad water parameters from coming in from my main tank. Keep up the great work, great videos. Continued success.

[@stevenharvey2148]

Wow awesome content mate really cool. You make it look too easy

[@DogeMultiverse]

lets goo! another fish breeding guide!

[@pullbackbaby]

I am new to your channel and find it to be the best on fish breeding overall, as you do not bore the viewer. If you ever have luck breeding any kind of Garra fish like Panda or even Rufa.. please ❤️ upload some kind of tutorial. These are my favorite fish as they remind me of loaches except they are more active and not shy. 👍🥂👍 Somehow I feel like I'm heading down the same road you're on. Cheers! 🥂

[@jaylin7834]

Man I love these

[@nessiferum6200]

The frys' little stripes make them look like pygmy cories, super cute!

[@craigbonnici568]

Another awesome vid Nick! Thanks for the tips 👍

[@ClockWorkCroc]

Thats good info

[@glenn3762]

Are you feeding inbetween the blackworms like rapashy or just feeding every two days?

[@jueadeo8843]

I love your breeding videos! I'm always learning new things from your videos. You should do one on breeding bristlenose catfish.

[@paulstingray]

I feel the need to breed stingrays ina. bin! haha

[@pieterboon393]

Nice fishroom, how many gallon are youre tanks? Im starting a fishroom but don’t wanna abuse my fish. 😊

[@otcfishkeeper5414]

Beautiful fish.

[@Rexon__1]

Bro I love seeing your videos

[@cecelia5986]

Would a cold water change hurt guppies if they’re also in the tank?

[@Rews-fish-shed]

Quick question, how long do you condition the adults for?

[@saltygreek3870]

Out of 99% of the youtuber breeders out there youre aquariums seem to be the most messy ! Not trollin you just curious are you just purposefully doing that or just the up keep too much to handle ? Again I'm not trollin you, just curious, btw congrats on the corys breeding ! Those lazer corys are my fav ! Next on the bucket list .

[@marie-alexiatellier4524]

I don’t have any success at making my julii cory breed. I have 11, in a 20 gallons, lot of hiding and plants. I am doing 50% water change with colder water that drop the temperature of 2 degres. I am giving blood worms 4-5h before the water change. I only have couple platys with them. I have them for a 1 year and half. Do you have any other tricks that i can try? I watch pretty much all your video and try to applied what you are saying. Thanks and continue the good work !!!

[@sarahsindeband9043]

What size grow out tank did you use?

[@flexintonsaquatics]

Awesome I give this a try 👌

[@jenjenh706]

You inspire me to do more fishies;) how's the new fish room going?

[@theblindfishkeeper]

This is one of the best comprehensive Cory breeding videos I’ve seen lately. Good work!🐠🦯

[@markb8954]

Great video. My albino corys lay a ton of eggs after every water change, I just leave them (on the glass walls), but none ever hatch. Sooo, what am i not doing?

[@YasharMalekian001]

Thanks for video

[@Jackessery]

Why isn't there any stock in the kfs online fish store?
