    Guppy’s in a community tank?

    Bronze and albino Cory

    Perfect I was thinking of doing just that! But getting a dwarf blue gourami as a centrepiece kinda fish and 3 albino Corys and 4 Pygmy cories, think that would work?

    Bronze and albino Cory

    Perfect. I currently have 3 bronze Corys so the addition of 2 albino Corys for example would be fine? My tank is currently under stocked so any number recommendation would be appreciated as I do really love them very fun to watch

    Bronze and albino Cory

    Can you keep albino Corys with bronze Corys ? Or do they both need their different shoals. Seems weird considering they’re both same fish with different pigmentation?

    Fish ideas?

    Everywhere I read said 5-6 Pygmy Corys were fine?

    Fish ideas?

    Yeah thanks you made two points I never even thought about, do shrimps breed easily? How many could I fit with everything else that would be suffice so not hurting any of the fish

    Fish ideas?

    Cheers amazing! Thanks for the help. Sounds like a great idea. Cherry shrimp and black shrimp with java fern etc I think would be really cool as well. A lot of people always talk about dwarf gouramis what would your thoughts on them be if any?

    Bronze corydoras reddy gills

    Hi, yes guppy’s in the near future but Ofc now focusing on community tank. My waters GH is quite hard being from london in the UK.

    Bronze corydoras reddy gills

    I’m a university student so struggle with money and the kits really expensive :( I’ve got strips which I know aren’t good enough but coronavirus hasn’t helped just yet in funding the addiction! I’m planning to eventually have a guppy breeding tank alwuas seemed like an amazing idea

    Bronze corydoras reddy gills

    Yeah lovely tank btw kinda what I aspire too. I bought them with a slight red tinge I believe seen because I haven’t seen a drastic change in their appearance nor temperament. They’re lovely creatures and I’m really enjoying them probably why I’m stressing!
