Cories For 60L

[ellena]

I will be setting up a 60l 2ft tank soon for a small community. I would love some sterbai/julii looking cories. Would they be OK in there?
If not, what could I have apart from pygmies?
Thanks

Yes

I had 3 Julli Cories in my 65L community tank, which i have since sold But ideally cories should be in groups of 5.

EDIT: I wrote 2 when i meant 3

yes you can, but I doubt you'll get Julii cories, they're quite rare and hard to source, You're best bet would be trillineatus which are quite similar in looks, trillineatus are often miss labled as julii.

That's it truck. I knew there was a similar looking cheaper one. I just like the overall look, so not fussed exactly which one it is. How big do they get?

max 6cm, 5 more likely.

Good choice with the tri's,i have 12 of these cuties

I knew I'd seen them in someone's sig-they look fab against the sand I'm debating whether to go natural or black sand atm-hmmm.....
