I have a 125 litre tank with ten tiger barbs and nine false Julii corydoras which have been together for 6 or 7 weeks. The corys have a bit of fin damage and are possibly a bit more sedentary lately. Yesterday I saw a tiger nip a Cory and today I saw 2 tigers chasing and nipping a Cory. This is not at feeding time. Do I need to permanently separate the two species? I don’t know if the corys are struggling so are easy targets or are being picked on so are struggling?
I don’t have a suitable tank and don’t want another tank (space, money, maintenance) but if I need one will a 40 litre be big enough for 9 corys?
GH 139ppm, KH 80ppm, pH 7.4, Ammonia 0, nitrite 0, nitrates 10-20. 50% water changes weekly.
