Hi Djs7137

It's unlikely that corys or brochis splendens (which is what your emerald corys usually turn out to be) will actually fight. They might not swim together but there should not be trouble. The species of bronze corys is C. aeneus.

Here's a link about the brochis. They are related to corydoras but are a bit bigger. The second link is for your bronze corys.

I'll move your thread into the Corydoras section of the forum. Look for it under Catfish.

Actually i was mistaken there actually not Bronze Corys there actually Corydoras Pantanalensis. I dont know what the short term of this is.
