how many corys can you fit in a 10 gallon??

[petitericeball]

without anything else besides maybe some like shrimp/algae eater type things?

You know the rule: one inch of fish per gallon. So theoretically, 10. However, you can push the limits if you do FREQUENT water changes and have excellent filtration.

Althopugh many Corys grow to more then 1"/25mm so by stocking 10 you will be overstocked as they grow, and pushing it would be unadvisable. The 1" per gallon is not a "rule", it is lacking anything else, a guideline as to the maximum recommended.

i dont agree... 6 maximum... and dont abide by the 1 inch per gallon theory... its bogus

u cant put a 20" fish in a 20 gallon tank, it would bumb its head on every corner

remember 6 is the max,

some people might say lower actually

depends really...

What cories? Pandas stay at an inch. Bronzies will get bout 2-3 inches.

I agree with Phantom it would depend on the species.
