I am looking at starting a new tank within the next month or so, 20 gallons and quite shallow and elongated, perfect for bottom feeders and such. I really love catfish and am looking to have them comprise as much of the tank as possible.
I definitely know that I want a few panda corys. To add some diversity to my tank, I will probably also add a few docile female bettas I have.
My biggest question is if I could put a couple of Pictus in this tank as well. I know they are much larger than corys, but I have read that they can also get along well together.
If not, does anyone know of any other larger catfish which would live well with corys? What about upside-down catfish?
Additionally, what would be the best for cories, gravel or sand. I currently have topfin brand gravel but I don't want to hurt their barbs. Would this be an issue?
Thanks for your help!
