Thank you for another informative video that is enjoyable and relaxing to watch. I like all your work because the narrative is good and you really seem to capture the personality of the species that you spotlight. Can't wait for your next video.
It's true! Pandas are super prolific and breed quite often once matured and well seasoned. I have 35 adults in my 40 gallon breeder and I'll get (1-4 day long) spawns literally every week. The most eggs I've ever pulled from my giant java moss clump in that tank is (currently) 130 eggs in a single spawn.
It's true! I have 30+ pandas, both long and standard finned, almost 10 of which I've bred and kept. In my 40G breeder I'd do 75% water change, add a large clump of java moss, and by that night females were depositing eggs, specifically 10pm to 4am. I'm only person (I know of) within hour drive of my hometown who's bred and raised them in 25+ years (still working on higher fry survival rates after 1 month old mark).
Love this fish and enjoyed this video. I'm planning to add a fish keeper's dozen of them to my 29 gallon long in November 2022. Tuank you for your enjoyable videos as always.
Love my Pandas. Started out with two. Luckily different sexes I happily discovered. 2 are now 6 to 8 (might be more, hard to get a count). Fry survivors of different batches, different stages of development. Wasn't in anyway expecting population growth. Just a nice development. Figured any eggs and fry would be gobbled up. So fun...
@@ollielloydjones5774 , yes. I just let them do their thing. Did provide plenty of areas for cover and hiding. The only fish that might possibly harass them are a small number of cherry barbs. But they seem more interested in chasing each other around. All and all, all of the tank mates seem to tolerate each other well.
@@Steves_fish Unfortunately my local pet store let me know that they order in groups of 15-20 but are lucky if 1 or 2 survive the shipping process. I had to drive an hour and a half but I eventually got 2 more. Its a small school but at least he's not alone anymore
Which cory would you put on top if uour favourite list? Easy fir me I adore the 3 dwarf type available, I've dozens of pygmy which seem to keep their numbers up. The way they perch of leaves tickles me, a stiff stem with robust leaves and I'll see the doubled up making the stem look like a tree of cheeky cory you've got to love them. Do uou have a Facebook page also,?
Hey Bob! Ooh my favourite Cory, that’s a tough one. Pygmy’s are certainly up there as they are adorable and so easy to accommodate, but also adolfoi and koru, and I actually really like common little pepper corys. All corys are nice though, I don’t think there is a bad one in the group 😀
Nice, Wales in on my list of places to move to one day - somewhere up in the hills maybe, you know - about as far away from people as its possible to get in the UK :D (without going to the Scottish highlands), currently though I am in Staffordshire, which is okay but not as pretty as Wales.
I just got 5 panda corys yesterday. Online order and i was worried cause it took 3 days after it shipped so i was expecting all doa. Luckily all arrived alive and doing great. However my ph is off the chart. 8.4 is the last color on the test strip. Ive ordered peat granuales. Will that lower the ph enough?..cloud the water? The tank is fluval flex 15g. The only other fish are red eye tetras. Fake everything except 2 pieces of driftwood i boiled for 2 hours so no visible tannins. Any suggestions?
GOOD VIDEO EXPLANATION :) I HOPE YOU WILL DO A NEW AND MORE DETAILED . THANK YOU FOR SHARING :) I DID A THUMB-UP ABOUT THE VIDEO AND SUBSCRIBED TO THE CHANNEL :) THANK YOU FROM ISRAEL :)
I got 6 from aquatics shop and they have all died off slowly 1 at a time, they were in a well established cycled tank nothing wrong with all my other fish and nothing wrong with water, I'm gutted but baffled my head cod don't know why died
I had 5 young albino corys... 2 are only left now.. i dont know how long till I can get a new batch of them, but for the mean time, will they get stressed and die cuz they are not in a bigger group yet? :(
Hey sorry for the late reply. Don't worry too much, cories like to be in big group but they are tough and resilient and they have each other for company, I would get a few more when you are able to but don't stress yourself out about it

Panda corydora are my absolute favourite fish
Your videos are delightfully informative!

this type of video is the best
Panda Cory's are sometimes underated compared to some of the rarer and more expensive Cory's but these are some of my favourites to keep
100% agree!
wow! Good to know about those white stones with holes! Thanks😊
Corydora seem so cute. Wish I had a larger tank to keep some! Would you do a Pygmy corydora spotlight? They also look adorable!
i never herd of pygmy corydora.
Love my Panda Cory's. Complement my Tiger Barbs and Long fin Danios perfectly. Love your videos. Wade from So. California, Cheers!

did you pandas spawn naturally?

Will they eat red cherry shrimp and can they live in a community tank with chili rasboras red cherry shrimps and 1 male honey gourami?
Excellent video ❤️
I have a panda cory. Hopefully my local fish store gets more soon

Hadnt thought of it honestly.

Hi. If i have normal sand in my tank will they be stirring it everywhere?
Hello! Nah, Corys constantly skim around on the bottom but they don't dig so unless your sand is VERY fine it should stay put :)

Can I put only 4 in a 10 gallon tank?
What's that super long fish? It's beautiful
It's a kuhli loach
GOOD VIDEO EXPLANATION :) I HOPE YOU WILL DO A NEW AND MORE DETAILED .
THANK YOU FOR SHARING :)
I DID A THUMB-UP ABOUT THE VIDEO AND SUBSCRIBED TO THE CHANNEL :)
THANK YOU FROM ISRAEL :)
Ma'am, What's the age of green Corydora catfish ?
My 4 adults have produced 4 different sets of babies. Only saw the first babies 2weeks ago, now that I look there are 4 sizes in my tank, lol
What was that yellow fish?
I got 6 from aquatics shop and they have all died off slowly 1 at a time, they were in a well established cycled tank nothing wrong with all my other fish and nothing wrong with water, I'm gutted but baffled my head cod don't know why died
I’m trying to decide between these guys and kuhli loaches and your incredible footage is not helping me decide
I ordered some from liveaquaria, four, for my school tank.... one died and I’m so sad
I had 5 young albino corys... 2 are only left now.. i dont know how long till I can get a new batch of them, but for the mean time, will they get stressed and die cuz they are not in a bigger group yet? :(

6:15, it is always a good idea to sell offspring and add unrelated individuals to your school. Incest should not be perpetuated if possible.
Do they live with goldfish?
Can I put two panda corys. Six cardinal tetras and one betta in a 5 gallon tank??
Too much biology. Not enough space for them
You can. They will stay in different layers of the tank
No. That’s way too much bio load.
Thanks Lauren
And thank you for the comment!
