taking care of corydoras juveniles

[Three Trees]

my corys keep on laying eggs and I'm not sure that I give the juveniles the right care.
What do I need to do with them? how should be their tank? how do I feed them? etc...

I'm no Cory expert, but maybe Waldo can come help you when he finds this thread..

I did read however, that young corydoras are sensative to PSI in the tank.. Meaning, they DON'T like deep tanks. This idea came from the thought that Corydoras usually reproduce on the shorelines of riverbeds, and the young hardly travel into deep water as juveniles. After some studies, a few corydora specialists came to the conclusion that corydoras, especially young ones, will do better in shallow tanks with cooler water.. (cool water depending on species)..

As far as feeding foods, there are alot of tiny live foods you could feed like daphnia and cyclop-eeze.. I bet if you go to some of the catfish websites you could probably find some very informative articles on the breeding of corydoras.

I used to breed them in a 15long tank with lots of plants and mulm so there was plenty of microrganims for them to eat till they could tackle crushed flakes
