Corys For The Tank?

[Blubble37]

In relation to this thread - http/www.fishforum...01#entry3263001

I am looking for some corydoras to go in my tank (95L) I was thinking along the lines of 4 Panda corys, 4 Bronze corys and possibly 4 Albino corys... the other stock of the tank will be...

1X Female Molly, 3X Zebra Danio, 1X Pearl Danio, 7X WCMM, 1X Male PK Betta and 2X ottocinclus...

I was also thinking of getting a small pleco for the tank as well but even a BN would possible pose a food source threat to the corys..... and may become aggressive.....

My faves are Sterebai - great looking and really active.

As with all corys they prefer to be in a larger group - whichever you go for it may be better to stick to one type and get 6-8 of them than a couple of groups of 4.

fair enough... i looked at green lazers... and then drooled on the screen a little lol

Yep green lazers are a good call - nice looking fish!

Personally i think 12 corys plus the initial stocking would be overload in a 95 litre,especially adding a bn... albino & bronze can reach upto 3 inches long... you may get away with with 6 pandas being smaller...

Really otos do better in groups of 6,has well has the danios in bigger groups,you may get fin nipping on the betta or vice versa...

ok... taken onboard...

just to say though.... if you are thinking of a filtration issue... dint bother... i have the required filtration for a 1000 litre tank

I'd up the numbers of Oto to 6 & add some albino corys, maybe 4/6

i have 14 or 15 green and orange laser cory's check my journal out for pictures they look really truly amazing , shame to put a lid on my tank because you can really see there colours more from above i can't fault them so active especially in sand cheeky little fellas

Edit i have a 330L tank with 1 medium plec and 4 angels thats my full stocking so far to give you an idea for stocking
