Fish Fanatic
Hi - I just wondered if it was "normal" for Bandit Cories to be really shy and timid? We have 4 of them in a 70 litre tank with 6 lemon tetras and 3 platies. When I watch from the doorway I can see them swimming about looking for food or up and down the glass - but as soon as I go anywhere near the tank they shoot off into the plants or into their cave. If I sit and wait 5 minutes or so they will come out until I move. Would they be happier with a couple more buddies (although I think I think I am fully stocked as it is)? They don't seem sick or anything but I can't get close enough to look properly without them disappearing off!
