Cannibalistic Albino Corys.

If you pay more attention to the comments in this video rather than the Corys' behaviour, the O.P states the Albino Cory have cannabalistic tendencies. Alarming, i thought at first, until someone replies stating it may not be each other but bigger fish.

My Corys, without beating about the bush, are thick. Thick as a whale omlette. Yet could more predatory fish purposely feed upon them, taking advantage of their 'slow brains' ?

-EDIT- Seems comments cannot be shown in Youtube links, should have thought of that.

I don't know what your intentions are here, The Taffy Apple, but of course, predatory fish can and do feed on smaller fish. This includes corys.

Cory's brains are exactly right for their needs. There's no need to be offensive about it.

sorry, i love albino corys and i dont any fish that would feed on them apart from fry which any fish will eat, i dont think it the fish who are thick in my opinion

I think my corys are pretty intelligent myself,i can sneak a wafer into their tank without them knowing,2 seconds later they're eating it,their super senses come into play

It doesnt really take inteligence to smell food and eat food

Had the comments from the original video been available for you all to read, then i guess my original point would had been alot clearer.

We'll leave this one for the waste paper basket i suppose.
