Ok, this could be the most extroadinary thing that has even happened to me in my 5 years of fishkeeping. Just over a week ago, I bought a large amount of plants and bogwood, and after a little soak added them to my main Corydoras community.
So today, I check the tank as always, and to my surprise I find what I'm SURE to be a little Zebra fry! It looks around 2-3 days old, as there is a little colouration forming. It cannot be a Cory fry, as it looks different than any other which I have raised, and it still has a rather large yolksack.
I can't believe it, as I have no zebras! The owner of the plants/bogwood told me he was clearing out his Zebra breeding community and thats why he was selling everything, so thats the only conclusion I can come to.
I will try and get a photo up ASAP. I can't believe it, I never have any luck, but finally it seems Lady luck has smiled down on me. The fry is now safe in a breeding net, is extremely active and nosey. :p
Wtf? Zebra Fry??

It supposed to be completely consumed by the 10th or 12th day depending on the temperature. Don't feed them untill then.Papworth wrote:My step-brother is going to bring round the camera tonight! :d I can't believe it . What do I feed the little beauty, as I have noticed it's yolk sack getting ever smaller really quick, is this normal?
