Tank looks great for the corys,i'm sure they will adore the extra space :)

Are You planning to add any more?
 
Is that not too many for that tank size? ive got 6 pandas and 3 sterbai in my main 40gal tank and i was worried about adding 3 more sterbai.

Tank looks nice though, what are pygmy corys like?
 
it is slightly overstocked, but I am overfiltering, and will do daily waterchecks etc as I do with all my tanks so they will be happy
 
I was hoping that you would decide this. I bet it will soon become your favorite tank.
 
Hi LilyRose Tank :)

Your tank is lovely. I'm sure the corys will enjoy all that open space and the sand substrate. :D
 
hi there, I have recalculated the volume and it works out to 31G, so i'm sure the corys will love it. And the person wanting to know about pygmy corys heres a pic

I also have an albino, and 4 pandas in another tank which is being treated for illness, so I am leaving them there until I know everything is clear.

Thanks guys, bought more plants ( 3 onions and a anubias on a driftwood, plus a coconut cave with moss and anubias) so here's the new photo.

it looks nice and natural.... please give honest opinions, I can take it...too much? x
 
I like it. I don't think I would put anything else toward the front. Keep plenty of room open for them to play and for you to be able to watch.
 
thanks guys, not planning on adding anything else. thanks for opinions
 
got a new photo, with better lighting, finally figuring out the lighting thing! lol
