Bronze corys are probably the easiest corys to breed... except maybe greens, but for corys they are really easy. Here's a link that does a good job talking about how to breed them:

Hope that helps and good luck!

Here, simple as can be:
Get a 55 gallon tank with good filtration.
Get a lot of decor so the cories can hide.
Get 15-20 bronze cories after 2 weeks of cycling.
Monitor ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates frequently.
Make sure the pH is around 6.8
Feed a variety of sinking catfish food.
Do water changes frequently.
Keep the temp around 78.
After 8-12 months of doing the above, do a 40%-50% water changes and slowly get the temperature to 74. Put a few pieces of ice in the tank.
If you are lucky, you will have eggs in no time.
The eggs get stuck to things easily. It is best if you take the decor with eggs on it into a 20 gallon tank with a sponge filter and good heating. After a few days, they will hatch. There is more info at liveaquaria.com.

The problem is picking males from females. Only they know for sure. If you get six, chances are good at least one is male and one is female. I have four. I'm almost certain they are all the same sex, but I don't know if that is male or female. I thought I saw them spawn once, but I think they were just playing.
