Pygmy Cories

[becca320]

Hi,

I currently have 6 pygmy cories doing a fantastic job keeping the bottom of my fry tank clean, they are all doing really well and I have considered putting them in one of my other tanks which currently has Albino Cories in it, Would this be ok as they are so much smaller, I wouldnt want the bigger Albinos to pick on them as they are so small (currenlty about 15mm in length) The LFS advised they may get biggger but not much..

Any advise would be appreciated as I am wanting to set up the currenlty all Albino tank into just cories of different types.

I am also concerned that they may try to interbreed ?? Anyone had any experience with this or do they all tend to stick to their own ?? LOL

Thanks
Becks.

They will be fine sharing the tank as they tend to shoal off the substrate and there is no chance whatsoever of cross-breeding. Enjoy. - Frank
