Re: coral disease: black band treatment

My tank's too small for isolation. Anyone tried erythromycin? Read it works on some bacterial infections but not sure about black band.

Re: How to ensure corydora fry survival?

I've heard some folks use Indian almond leaves to help with fry survival. The tannins might give them a boost. Anyone tried that with Corydoras?

Re: How to ensure corydora fry survival?


First off, congrats on the fry! You're on the right track with the sponge filter and sand. But crushed flakes might be too big for them. Try microworms or vinegar eels instead. Also, keep the tank dimly lit, fry are skittish with bright light. How often are you doing water changes?


Yep, dim ...
