Guess no one like the pictures :unsure:

Well, I have had my C. weitzmani for over month or so now. They have completely settled in and are eating anything I put into the tank. I took some pictures of them going crazy over an earthworm stick (thanks madattiver for telling me about them): You can see a well fed C. axelrodi...

Keep them in large groups of their own kind, feed them a well balanced diet, give them a nice sand substrate they can dig in, keep them with non-aggressive fish, give them some places to rest, stuff like that. The main key to keeping cories happy and healthy to is keep the substrate clean and...

Nice fish. Narcissus are on my list too :shifty:

Nice fish :good: Where did you buy them? Were they a local buy?

I dont know what Im going to do yet. I have not decided if I want to devote a whole 55 gallon to just one fish either. What kind of pleco do you have in with the JD? Its not the only tank I have. I have an empty 55 gallon, 30 gallon, and 3 10 gallons. I have 4 other tanks that are filled...

Thanks for the reply. First off, the fish will be going in a 55 gallon and will be the only fish in the tank. I mentioned the 45 gallon, because that was the most common size mentioned on the interent. I was thinking of a breeding pair, but my first intention was to get the one. I have...

I have an empty 55 US gallon tank. Im thinking of getting a Jack Dempsey for it. I saw the fish profile already, but still had some questions. Ive read on the internet that a 45 gallon tank is acceptable for these fish. Is this true? Also, I would like to get a pair, male and female, and I...

Yeah, and live blackworms seem to be even better...

Mouse: Nominated here: http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?showtopic=173090 Thanks babybell911 and Miss Wiggle for the nominations :good:

Very nice :good:

I agree :good:

This one? http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?showtopic=163054

Yep, those are indeed cory eggs :good:

With that size tank and if you get 20 of the cories like you are saying, then I dont see the loaches bothering them. You could get a nice school of loaches for a tank that size. You really have a lot of possiblities :good: The cories will not bother any one. The clown loaches may get...

Its too hard to tell. You can feed them some kind of wafer and take a picture of them then. They should stay still around that tablet, allowing you to get a better picture.

Do they look like this: These are what Im calling "gold shoulders." These pictures were taken when I had half gravel and half sand in their tank. I have taken out that gravel since.

What kind of other cories do you have? All cories get along great, so you wont have any problems. If you have the room in your tank, then you might want to get at least one more of the other one you have. Generally cories should be kept in groups of 4-6 or more, but 3 is better then 2.

Pictures will definately help... Here is a picture of one of my orange lasers. Do they look anything like that? This picture was taken not long after I got them and they were still settling in. The colors are much more brighter now.

Very nice. Pictures please :D

Sorry about the loss. Im almost brave enough to get some otto's, but just havent done it yet. I would like a group of 6-8 of them. Nice fish :good:

Thats pretty funny :lol:

Thanks for all the nice comments and the nominations :D

I have to agree with the aeriation thing. I have air stones in all of my tanks and I hardly ever see the cories go to the top and gulp. They will shoot up to the top really fast after eating. Cories do this to help digest their food, but they are not supposed do it all the time. Like what...

Im not sure, but I can find out.

Ive read they loaches will pick at the snails breathing tube until they kill it and then will eat it.

Its probably grumpy because it was by itself. Loaches are very social and to get their normal behaviors, they need to be in groups of their own kind. You may find that those YoYo loaches you have will get nasty at times too.

I agree :good:

Are you talking about my avatar?

This might help: Corydoras pygmaeus: http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/speci...?species_id=283 Corydoras habrosus: http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/speci...?species_id=482 Corydoras hastatus: http://www.planetcatfish.com/catelog/speci...?species_id=324 Corydoras pygmaeus is...

Also, wild caught corydoras can be skittish like that for a while. If they are shipped to you, they can also be skittish. Ive had some of mine for 4-6 months and they will still scatter if I move up to the tank to quickly. Then again, I have some C. weitzmani I got a couple weeks ago (cant...

Very nice! Please post some pictures if you can :good:

I dont think its a C. melanistius because if its 8 years old, it would be a lot bigger then that. To get a positive id we need a better picture :good: EDIT: But then again, I cant really tell by that picture... Here is a picture of my Corydoras polystictus that might help you. This picture...

Thanks for the comments everyone :good: She is quite the cat. She is still a kitten, almost 10 months old. That cat is into everything :rolleyes:

What kind of Corydoras? Some Corydoras are very easy to breed, but most can be difficult.

Nice fish, Frank :good: Ive been keeping an eye on mine. No albinos yet...

I took some pictures of my cat Mouse today while I was at my parents house: I hope you like them :good:

I actually use earthworms sticks and flakes from Kens Fish. The cories love them :good: EDIT: Here are some pictures to show you how much they like them. As soon as it hit the bottom, they were on it: Thats some good stuff...

I know. I was responding to what he said about the C. Weitzmani looking like C. Panda. In other words, I was saying C. oiapoquensis look more like C. Panda.

Nice fish and Im also interested to see what you find out. C. seussi are on my wish list :D
