Cory's in my tank.

[illusion54]

I would really like to get a school of cories in my tank, but my tank is a 29 gallon. So how many cory's could it hold? Would they get along with a SAE? How should i feed cory's?

Thanks

a 29 gallon should be good for a group of 4-5 cories...what other fish do you have in there...i believe cories will be fine with SAE's but have no experience...cories should be feed shrimp pellets, algae wafers, and frozen just before lights out...

I plan on keeping a couple of cherry barbs, a school of rasboras, some danios, a SAE, and then the cories.

SAE - I thought this was a stamped addressed envelope? Sorry is my ignorance showing?!

When I know what an SAE is I might be able to help!!! However, in my (limited) experience corys get on with most things - and like the special catfish pellets - unfortunately so do all the other fish. Ours eat bloodworm, daphnia and anything basicially. And we've also discovered that they prefer sand to gravel!

Would I be able to hold six panda cories since they dont grow to half the size of other cories? I place I get panda cories from has a minimal order of 6.

yes, 6 should be just fine in that size tank
