Sterbai Corie Mating Behaviour

[TW]

Wondering, does anyone know the mating behaviour of the sterbai corie. Two of my cories, that I have had for several years, are acting unusually. Maybe they are just in a fun loving playful mood, but curious anyway

hi robyn,

sterbai, like most cories, mate by making a 't' shape - the female lays an egg, holds it between her back fins, the male latches on and fertilises it, then the egg is stuck to a surface. it's quite an amazing process to watch.

hope all is well,
