Ok this isn't anything to do with Rainbows or fish from Oz but...

I know some of you, Harro especially has experience with Corys. I have
had them before but never tried to breed them. I just got 13 Cory
pygmaeus today I would like to breed. The water they came in as at pH
6.5. My tanks run close to 8.0 pH. Right now the fish are in the water
they came in, in a bucket in the fish room.

First, if I drip them will they live in my water or will I need to buy
water for them? Also even if they will live in this water, will they
spawn in it? And finally I read they can be triggered with a cold
water change after conditioning. Any other tips to get them spawning?

Thanks,
Rhonda
