Schwartz With Others?

[CBBP]

Well I counted today and I stil have 9 schwartz cory cat and I finally got all 5 pepper cories to the 29 gallon tank.. now my question is.. should I just add more schwartz or should I adda different kind fo cory? should i add any more at all? I kind of wanted to do a tetra schoal and some dwarf cichlids and an angle fish or 2..

should I stop at 9 cories and get my other fish or what?

you could maybe add some top swimmers like White Cloud Minnows,i know there not very exciting but there small,not very messy and will school some of the time.I know there are lots more exciting fish,but it seems you have a lot of corys for a 29 gallon

IMHO, there is nothing like an all cory community tank.

The things I especially like about them is that they are always peaceful and actually interact with each other when they play. Other times the various species get their members together and just sit and quietly enjoy each other's company. You never know just what they might be doing at any given time.

If you choose to add other kinds of fish, it's a good idea to do a little research first so that you match then up with the proper corys in terms of water temperature and other conditions and temperaments. Corys are peaceful fish and must be kept with other peaceful fish. It's usually best to avoid keeping them with cichlids, for an example.
