NOTEBOOK
Breeding Corydoradinae Catfish (Second Edition)
by Ian Fuller
Available from www.corydorasworld.com
Book review by Hans-Georg Evers
Ian Fuller, an expert on mailed catfishes whose fame extends far beyond his
native England, has brought out an updated, greatly expanded and comprehensive
edition of his 2001 book on breeding Corydoradine catfishes, which
has long been out of print. The new self-published work can be ordered on the
author’s website. Fuller has obtained help from a number of other breeders,
and the new book details breeding success and fry development in more than
150 species.
After an introductory section encompassing more than 30 pages on his
breeding set-up, with numerous detailed photos, tables, and loads of information
on methods of breeding mailed catfishes, we come to the 330-page heart
of the book, the “spawning logs,” where at least two pages are devoted to
discussing each species using a clear and readable style.
In Breeding Corydoradinae Catfish, Ian Fuller has published a wealth of
information on the reproductive biology of one of the most popular of all
catfish families. It is a reference volume that should be of interest to every expert
aquarist, not just fans of corys and their kin. Trends come and go in the
aquarium hobby, but Ian Fuller has dedicated his life to the study of mailed
catfishes. This big new book will be welcomed by many aquarists.
