#corycats

Oh great and wise fishblr! Could you maybe tell me what sex my honey gouramis are now that i was finally able to take clear photos of them?

Ampere (the round yellow one) is a bit more shy than Joules (the striped narrow one) and often hides in the plants when movement happens outside the tank. They do sometimes chase joules off when food is involved but otherwise leave joules alone or they touch eachother with their lil feelers. (My lone male guppy Pidge loves hanging out with the two of them and they tolerate him lol)

Bonus pics:

Only one of them has a name which is the small blueish one I've creatively named Bluey haha

If anyone has tips on raising possibly 14 corydora catfish babies I will be eternally grateful.

I have two corycats and they just happen to be the opposite sex and it was finally the right conditions and they have laid eggs!

I've seperated the eggs into a cup attached to the inside of the tank out of reach from the parents cause I know they like to eat them.

If anyone's got tips and/or first hand experience on how to care for them once they've hatched I would love to hear it! For the record, I never planned on breeding them, I just happened to get two fish of opposite sex. I'm going to give the baby fish away to friends and family if they want them and can take care of them once they are old enough as to not overcrowd my tank. (I may keep one or two tho)

Started stocking the 20 tall. For some reason it's not really leaching... at all.... but I got this Cory, the guy said it didn't come labeled and he wasn't willing to put a species to it since it's hard to tell them from each other. Any thoughts?

Update: After some digging I'm thinking it's Corydoras Ambiacus (spotted)

Looks like Ryan the Betta may be fending off dropsy successfully after being dosed with a ton of Melafix!  

He’s no longer pineconed and is swimming and eating a bit better.  But he’s still having floatation issues and is more lethargic than he used to be, so we’re concerned about moving him out of the quarantine tank (especially as the corycats in the big tank are all healthy).  At the same time, the quarantine tank is only 1.5 gallons and kind of low on enrichment for him so we’d like to move him back into his big tank at some point soon.  Any guidance, fishblr/bettablr?
